My Ride: BMW E60 530i
I'm in the same boat as yourself, but I'm not upgrading to a M. I dislike the stock bumper but I feel its too square and the Mtec kit makes it look more updated.
I have a 545i so power is more than enough for me. With these cars you keep it simple, slap some rims and a mtec kit with some coilovers and call it a day

The Mtech kit looks nice, that's for sure. I'll probably get the ACS front lip (my buddy found me a good paint shop) and let it as it is. I would love to get coilovers, but they are so expensive -- not considering springs/shocks because I want adjustability. I'm considering KW V1 for quality, but am also considering BC Racing and Stance for value.
I want to go to one of those bimmer meets downtown, they post it on maxbimmer if you're on there. I'm up to go with other 5 series guys.

Ah, that's good to hear. I'm really on the fence with it. What do you think about the ACS front lip? I really dislike the stock E60 front bumper... too... round. I'm thinking of getting that front lip, and maybe changing the interior lights to LEDs, then calling it a day with the mods. As you said, it looks pretty good the way it is now and 90% happy with it 
just my $.02. cheers.
