I guess part of my motivation or philosophy on upgrading or moding to to never put something on the car that BMW didn't offer. At least that is what I try to do with a few exceptions. At the same time, I try to buy the actual piece at hand from BMW. In this case, the price difference was well over $1,000. To the best of my knowledge, the M5 CS does not come with a body colored spoiler, it is CF, so I kind of wanted to stay with the OEM look. I am definitely not concerned that my diffuser is gloss black, I think they look nice together and after really looking over the car yesterday, I kind of feel like the Cerium gray (which is completely on the other end of the car) actually matched the CF. It's not like it is chrome, it's more like gun metal gray. The other thing is, if we are worried about "matching", the 668M's are pretty much Cerium gray and I ain't getting rid of those!!.
Anyway, just an alternative perspective. If over time I do feel like something is out of place, I will swap out the Cerium trim and mirror caps, but so far, I think I am good with the look.
