thanks Pete! man, definitely go with silicon adhesive on the splitters too then, the double sided tape that they provide ain't that great and there will be gaps w/o the silicon. what about the V-CSL bumper with a one-piece race splitter?

CF hood huh? very nice! do the CF roof too! no V-CSL trunk? get that or the strassentech lip spoiler.

you made me went search around cars.com for a used M5. came across one at $45-46k with 36k miles and it has the RD exhaust and rims and springs. too bad it's Indianapolis Red. lol but used M5 will definitely be in my hunt when getting rid of the C32.

If I have a chance, I may do a photoshoot too!...
Hey Drex, I'm assuming you mean this coming weekend. PM me if you wanna meet up out here.
