love the Hamann Classic IIs (- they are the "II"s right?)
You going for the originals or the VMR reps? And what size?
(I'm also in the process of doing a deal on a set of 20s for summer, so fingers crossed that works out... )

Well done for spotting the deliberate mistake in my response -- it was simply a test... honest

Nice list of mods
Getting some ACS pedals is good idea -- might just add those to my list
Afterall its a simple way of really enhancing the interior, especially if you have one of the M-Sport all-black interiors.
Do you need to drill holes in the car to get the ACS pedals to fit?

)These are original, but the size is only 19"
They are in catalog for older 5-serie...Would be nice to try 20s, but maybe at least next summer with these "little" babies
Hope you get your 20s

20s would be nice, but on a lowered E61 I think the 19s are already going to look fantastic.
I didn't do the deal on the 20s in the end. I have decided to use my 128s as summer wheels and mod the car with something like an M5 Trunk Finisher and some other small bits an pieces.

on board and enjoy the forums!Sounds like your car will look very similar to PatrickE61's car, so a very good choice of mods. I've seen his car in person and IMHO its a great blend of sports & purposeful, along with understatement and class.
Check out his Gallery for more mod inspiration

Thank you!
Just saw his car, exactly what I had in mind. Your car looks awesome Patric.
The first mod is done, the ipod interface. Works great!
Just ordered the m-aerodynamic package for salesafter, so waiting patiently
