In your opinion you think a white scoop would look good to go with paint color?
dont go with white.. youll probably see so much dust and dirt and dead bugs on it.. keep em red.. or black.. not white though

My Ride: Metallic gray '05 545i Sport Black Leather with HUD, Step, Nav, PDC, CWP, K&N Air Filter, Black RPI scoop, Black painted calipers, 35% F1 Pinnacle tint, 19" RDSport RS-2F rims with Continental ExtremeContact DWs.

I can post pics later, but how is everyone attaching the scoop to the edge on the debris filter? It was easy to put three screws in the leg of the scoop, but that sticky tape just doesn't hold very well and I've tried to wedge the scoop in to the edge of the filter. Whie it stays mostly in place, it does angle out to the left (away from the filter) a bit. Any ideas, pics? Thanks.
