STUD or DUD: Is The 5GT The Ultimate Badass Machine With Hamann Mods?

Bimmerpost reports:

Hamann has completed its work on the 5-Series GT and involves an impressive list of exterior and dynamic changes.

Their kit includes first and foremost a lowering kit for the models 530d, 535i and 550i (including air suspension).

The product range also includes a front spoiler to be mounted on the standard front spoiler of the series, side skirts and a rear spoiler in a ""subtle" or "striking" design. Both provide reduced lift force at the rear axle and thus considerably improve the driving dynamics. A new rear apron makes room for the HAMANN mufflers.

DUD! It's still a pretty darned unattractive, only now it's got a bunch of spoilers and crap attached.

Looks a bit tacky.

The best looking BMW current BMW 6-series and 3-Series.

It's good that it's so distracting in black.. otherwise the fragile feminization of the hatch look.. similar to an early 80's 4/door Chevy Citation, would overwhelm it.

This car is so far gone, that I can't even call this a dud... it kind of goes without saying... in fact, the wheels and kit compliment how awful this car looks even more

I think this car looks totally sweet. Its rare, to me, that any modification to a factory design is better, but in this case I think its much better. Its absolutely amazing how this design is so polarizing.
