2011 BMW 5-Series by Lumma Design and Topcar

Two Russian tuning firms and a German company have teamed up to offer a new kit for the 2011 BMW 5-Series F10.  TopCar and Cardi, from Russia, and Lumma Design have joined forces to create an aggressive styling package which will likely boost performance.

Judging by the included renderings, the car will maintain a bulging nose, with new carbon fiber front lip installed underneath.  The new bumper features five sections of air inlets, with honeycomb grille, and what looks like integrated LED lighting.

Bulging wheel wells lead to aggressive side sills.  The carved line leading from the front bumper to the sills is a particularly nice touch.  In back, a carbon fiber spoiler is added on top of the trunk, and a smoother bumper will also be included.  A carbon fiber rear diffuser, quad-tailpipes, and triple-spoke wheels rounds out the package.

The bodywork was created by TopCar and Cardi.  Lumma Design is keeping their cards hidden when it comes to the engine tuning kit they are developing for the package.  Full details should be released when their car is presented in April 2010.

I doubt a bodykit could boost performance.

The car hasn't even come out yet, they're already tuning it. That's just annoying.

Looks GOOD for a 3 SERIES. BMW lost it's originality. Maybe Banges designs were weird but they looked fituristically good and unique. X6 is the last of CRAZY BMW we SEE

Looks like a big 3 series, a preview of what the new 3 series will look like only smaller. Shame they will all look the same.

It looks good for me, and with big wheels it would look better than most 3 Series

I like this kit especially the front end.

Just look at the renderings closer. The aggressive wheelarches, sideskirts and air-vent in the front quarter picture are non-existent in the other two. They must be offering two separate kits, or I would call that sloppiness, not professionalism.

It's not about it looking good or not, it's the direction BMW is going that all their cars will look the same and NOT distinctive. I personally liked the E60 and of course the E90's.

And I am not talking about the renderings, we already know how the new 5 looks already, just picture that as the upcoming 3, which will look very similar. I also hate how in person the new kidney grills are HUGE! Check it out on the 7.

this lumma design looks good, i like the front but those grills ruin the design, and the rear is good but i think the vent above the exhaust is not needed.
