Nice, looks good. I really like the new 7-series. My only complaint about this kit is that the front bumper is a little to busy for me. I seriously love those wheels. Anyone know what they are and how much they are??

I agree with egainer, the old 7's rear is nicer-the inner lights are farther apart and here they painted the chrome strip that runs across the trunk.

Not bad. That actually looks pretty nice but I'm still partial to the earlier model 7 series, e38

Its probably just me, but that thing looks like it's seriously in need of an inch or two drop. Other than that, it looks pretty nice for a new 7 series...never been a huge fan.

I agree, neither the lip spoilers nor the wheels look good.

I agree, the old rear looks more unique. Somehow the new rear doesn't look as upscale, seems more suited for a 3 series.

Its not bad but im not feeling the sharp edges of the kit, or the wheels. I usually love the AC kits but to me this one has missed the target.

AC Schnitzer usually puts out nice wheels, but I don't understand these. Maybe they are too angular for the current "Bangleized" cars, not sure. One thing is for sure... they have NO LIP. Too bad- this car can EASILY take a 4"+ lip on the rear... and a 3"+ on the front!
