Mr and Mrs Smith e39 stripes

Im sure most of you saw the movie Mr. and Mrs. Smith... well if you remember in that movie they have 3 e39's that look similar to the m5's due to the front bumper and rear exhaust but i always though they look really nice with the strips... What do you think of the stripes, does anyone have any sorts os vinyls added to their car they can post pictures of??

Im considering the stripe, what do you think?

C'mon... you know you were stoked to see those eye-grabbing e39s in the movie... until they failed to perform!

The film was quite ok even though a van outrun the beemers (as was pointed out). As comes to the stripes I would go that path. On a M3 maximum.

I've actually contemplated those as well for a while now, but have arrived to the following conclusion, which I think has been reached on the board before by someone else.

There's a certain number and type of mods that you can do to an M5 and reflect class. With my black grilles, air intake ducts, and 3.5" exhaust, I think I've reached this maximum number.

Going to the stripes, will push the envelope and turn the M5 into a ricer unfortunatelly...I mean do you really wanna end up like this guy?

Wonder where he gets the extra 40hp?? maybe the spoiler??
