Thanks guys.

The side skirts are custom gloss black aluminum.

And yes Remus exhaust! nothing crazy but definitely a difference. Sounds good in low RPMs in the first few gears. Will try and get a video this weekend

Bumper was from a shop in LA, Crossed my fingers for fitment. It fits ok not perfect, so I think any bumper will do. You just gotta tweak it a little.

Rims are Gianelle Puertos 20"

No the splitter and sideskirts are from a company here in LA

Aeroflow Dynamics.

They make cannards, splitters, sideskirts mostly for subaru, civics etc.

so you basically had to modify the skirt extensions to fit the car? did you paint it yourself or did you have a shop do it? sorry for all the questions, it looks really good!

I will post a pic this weekened. or text me for faster response lol 909-957-1354

They come painted. however they are about 6 inches wide and the jack points only allow an inch or two so it left the skirt extensions sticking out 4 inches which i didnt like. So i had them cut a groove on the piece to allow for it to go in more which leave about 2 inches sticking out.

yup! i been going back and forth with them thru email...$300 for the pair. they said you can get them either gloss/matte black. i'll have to probably use a dremel to cutout the jack points since i'm not local like you. is your lip extension up front thru them as well? PM me what you paid for it cause i'm thinking of doing the same thing!

I dont notice any change in pressure. BUT i now can definitely tell how the engine changes to my driving.

If i dont punch it from a stand still and i have smooth speed ups. the exhaust sounds great in low rpms first few gears.

If i punch it for a day and the computer adjust i LOSE the deep tone in the lower gears because the gears are changing at different rpms ONCE I begin to drive it smoothly again after spirited driving. If this makes sense.

I was very hesistant getting the exhaust because i was thinking over $1k for exhaust on a 528i? How much sound can i get...........but i did it anyway and its one of my favorite mods. Looks and sounds good! I get a little blowback in first gear ......... Dont expect meistershcaft sound though!
