if only the M6 reps are matte black it'd look 10x better. not a big fan of complete gloss black wheels.

hahah thanks guys,

I'm trying to find a LCI M5 bumper, since I've got the LCI model, I can't get a regular add-on or bumper, I'll have to find a "LCI" bumper, LCI, Life Cycle Integration

thanks guys! yes, I'm keeping the e60 and the C55, total of 668hp FTW!! hahaha.

I'm not gonna get the S-Class tails, I'm keeping the C55 "Mostly Stock/Body Work".

1. Tinted Tails
2. Tints, de-chrome trims
3. CF (or painted) front lip
4. CF (or painted) L Spoiler
5. HID headlights+fogs
6. Black grill+flat hood badge.
7. Resonator delete+weld larger exhaust tips
8. CF (or painted) Carlsson Spoiler (taking off the C55)

that's basically it. and I'll have most of these done within the month!
