No offense to anyone (esp. the poster) but I think Hamman is crap. They offer the same combination of bling for every car. Body colored bumpers, "ground effect" spoilers front and rear (on an SUV?), lower it and slap on some big wheels. I want to put my cap on backwards just looking at it.

They did forget the coffee can exhaust, "R" symbol and upside down spoiler on the roof.

To each their own I guess.

I will be honest. I am not a huge fan of the E70 but now that I am starting to see them with aftermarket parts they are growing on me, I think the appearance is alot better with aero kit and wheels, I think it gives it a more aggressive stance.

The third one looks nice. OEM still the best though, imo.

You could achieve 90% of that look by painting the black platic trim parts on a standard car body colour. I think the standard 20" wheels look better too.

I agree, 24" spinners would finish the look.

Thank God I thought I was all alone out here and had somehow landed on the Escalade board!

I think BMW did a darn good job on the original- a few detail improvements would be nice (like painted bumpers or portions of thereof) but a front end subdivided into ten holes (I'm being conservative) with more slats than an early 80's Testarossa and spoilers that extend below the psuedo (for off roading of course!) pan protecter? Why no neon?

Again just my opinion but crappy overpriced aftermarket fibreglass (much less the psuedo carbon fiber that I'm sure will arrive with the Hamman super sports kit) does not a beautiful car make. And I'll bet ten bucks the car makes more- not less- drag.

But then again I never thought fender skirts, continental kits and twin raked aerials improved the '57 Chevy. Much less a BMW 507.
