Nice pics man. Bumper and wheels look fantastic! Seriously, your car is like my Sterling-Grey twin. I really like those charcoal-insert M6 reps as well. They really make the spokes stand out more as oppsed to mine which are all silver.

Just out of curiosity, how much was the ///M bumper brand new from the dealer?

Keep up the great work!

Price for parts sounds about right. That puts the bumper at right around $500-$600 based on my calcs. You got a great deal for painting though. And yes, the color matches perfectly indeed. That's one of the challenges body shops have when trying to match new paint with 3 yo factory paint. Mine is almost perfect -- from certain angles and lighting the color looks a little darker than the rest of the car, but I'm not complaining too much.

Any plans on lowering the suspension?

How does the remus sound? is it a cat-back or just the muffler?

The exhaust is an axle-back, for clarification.

The side turn signals can definately be swapped with the O.E. M version. I'm guessing you could use the M headlight lenses too, however, I have not seen anyone do that mod. At least with the M bumper you lost the amber front corner markers!
