Greetings to all 5 Series Forum members. I am Craig and am the pround new owner of a gently used 2004 530i. Right now it is in the paint booth where the new M Style bumpers are being painted. I got the bumpers from Trinity Autosport (Thanks for your assistance Joe) and was very pleased with their fit and finish. I have also procured new brake rotors, pads. and lowering springs from Bavarian Auto and New Koni FSD's from Tire Rack. Hopefully I will get the new parts on (I am a do it your selfer with plenty of tools) and will post pics as it goes along. I have been viewing the many posts contained here and have come to appreciate the vast knowlege base provided by this forum. Thanks to all those who have forged the trail ahead of me so that could make decent buying decisions. Hopefully I will be able to add some valuable info to your posts in the future.
to the forum!
