They are both brutal.

Sometimes designers get it wrong. AC was a good try.

I'd still take the stock car.

After what they did to the 1M this is not really a surprise but it is kind of official now, ACS is the Kardashian brand of the tuning world when it comes to "elegance" and "harmony". Good for mob drivers!

It's actually going to cause me pain when I see someone put this on their M5.

Sorry, I just rolled out of the bottom of the pile, took one look and want to jump back on top. They did a great job of classlessly over adding to that car.

Seriously ACS? You do the exact same thing you've done for like the last 5 cars? Same wheels, that tacky grill in the front, a spoiler here, a spoiler there, and some very tacky decals.

Is business so bad that you have to recycle old parts and apply them to new models?

Seriously ACS. You guys need to refocus and go back to the late 80's to late 90's when your parts were more integrated with the car looks wise. Now it looks like you're doing things on the cheap exterior wise. And PLEASE for your own sake. Return back to the wheels above. It was your shining moment in wheel design.

I do not usually put long posts but come on guys

There are only few tuners that only work exclusively on BMW and hamann used to be BMW exclusive

In my opinion ACS over did this body work but there are some nice parts.

Nice things

The front carbon fiber lip looks good and neat
The rear diffuser is also nice for a change
The engine cover is also good but not feeling the color
The idea of the roof is nice but carbon fiber would be better

Bad things

The hoods multicolor looks cheap
The rims design is really bad and never liked them ever since I saw them on the X6 M
The quad pipes look much better
The fact that they are emphasizing the models name is a big fail
The intake below the kidney grill is a fail only if they extend to the other intakes
THE REAL SPOILER IS A NO NO NO

Overall the car looks good and that IMO and I would not mind part of the kit especially the diffuser and front lip
