99.9999% sure, yes.

I'm certainly no Graves, but I am a fecking car geek after all

The M5 has more oval shaped wing mirrors.

I think the 4 exhaust might have been a bit of a give away too.

oval interior mirror is good guide

banghra boys change the door mirrors but the driver's interior jobby is a bit trickier

Nope - you can buy replica mirrors (which look crap) and quad exhausts.

Ok, so why would anyone spend all that money changing bumpers, mirrors, wheels, suspension & exhaust and leave a 518i badge on it then??
