The front lip does not lower the M5’s ride height as it does not extend past the lowest point of the front bumper but you have to be careful parking since the lip sticks out slightly more than the OEM bumper cover.

I don't like how it eliminates the protruding ends of the OEM lower bumper at each side.It sort of "rounds" out the front end. Kind of even makes it look less aggressive.

Nah-lol! Not crazy about nay of the stuff that has come out yet for the F10 M5. Very let down with Vorsteiner. I like their front lip but the rear diffuser just looks WAY too aggressive for the F10. The kit looks INSANE on the F12 though!

RKP has something in the works for the F10 that I think you will very much enjoy. We'll update this forum as soon as we can.

It is indeed, but the 991 is a masterpiece! I am sure that car is a pleasure to own.

The checkered carbon weave is not for everyone but I wanted to make sure M5post members have a few weave options

Finally managed to get the beast cleaned today and take some pics of the RKP front lip - supplied by Nate in gloss black and I have continued the theme by having the roof, door handle trims, front grille surrounds and diffuser wrapped golds black to match. Side grilles replaced with gloss black ones and a set of carbon Cyba tips fitted. Tinted front windows complete the look

Wouldn't this lip compromise the design for air flow to the intercooler?
My understanding is that the reason for the cut out area in the middle of the bumper is to optimize air flow to the intercooler.
