Wow, the car looks pretty good. Maybe BMW bought a share of ACS and is purposly making their new cars ugly to sell more ACS bodykits  . I love the new front bumper that gives the car a much more sporting tone. Thanks for sharing.

very good looking.. but I wonder what sort of enchancements ACS is going to have for the E60 besides cosmetic ones, seeing that the car has so many electronics in it.. even the suspension I would imagine would be hard to change, etc...

I'm sure the M5 will look better And better yet, the M5s modifications will be purely functional (hopefully)
