The only M performance parts are the sideskirt decales and the rear spoiler. The M5 & M6 have the same sideskirts and rear bumpers as the M packages ones. Only the diffuser is different. The reason is because the rear fenders of the M cars are not wider. In the M3 is is different, as the rear quarter panels are the wider, an all new rear bumper can be designed.

The ///m5 trunk badge looks horrible..
If you can afford the car why paint the badge like that. Buy nice black ones lol

What I don't get is why don't the side gills have an option (at no cost) to have the black side gills/kidney grill just like they do for the window exterior trim?

Instead marketing performance part rhetoric

They are OEM, part of the BMW Performance Line listed under the 5-series F10. However they will only work if you do not have the laser guided CC and the little thingie on the grill.

Love this look. Those wheels...OEM powdercoated? They look like 359 but have more spokes, any idea what they are?
