Let me know how that front lip lines up with the E63 bumper. I have the same lip from the same vendor that I'm trying to get rid of. As far as your exhaust is concerned, I'd go E55/C63/CLS55 mufflers with resonator/cat delete. The muffler/tip by itself won't give you any noticeable sound increase but resonator/cat delete will bring it out a bit more. I didn't like it at first, but it grew on me; it's not obnoxiously loud, and to the untrained person it probably sounds stock.
I hope you end up hating that grill even when its blacked out
just save yourself the time and pick up a stock grill now

Lemon, if we retrofit DRLs on the bumper, are we leaving the wirings for the fogs disconnected? Would it only throw an error if i turn the fogs on?

We'll try to document and take photos as much as we could. Will start work on June 10 and if everything turns out well, may take up to 3-5 days.

In my case, the way I set it up, yes. If you don't want to keep them disconnected you can just draw power from fog lights instead but that would mean DRL's are on only when fogs are on.

Ok thanks mate! I reckon i can live without my front fogs and with it disconnected as long as it wont throw an error upon starting the car.

Thats right mate. That was our first choice but we went with the Godhand instead. Got it from one supplier along with the diffuser and saved us 80 bucks.
Another question, if were goin for the towhook mount license plate, or the simple plate relocator, wouldnt it trigger the parking sensors?

Towhook mount license plate...I say don't do it. I had it on my E60 cuz I bought a bumper without a hook cover and it looked hideous. But again, to each their own. The one I had was adjustable, so you could position it left, right or center horizontally, and top, center, or bottom vertically.

Thats true, our initial plan was to paint the fins black but i changed my mind thinking it would be cleaner if we dont. I just want to put cf stickers on em and see how it goes.
