Lovely gold BBS LMs to go with the car. And the Blitz exhaust sounded good. I love this color! Defn the color I will choose if I were to get a lexus. Very impressed with the paint thickness.
Overall the car was pretty dirty due to very few washes. Some areas had some RDS that I had to bust out my yellow pad to get those fixed. First time using Swissvax Glacier, works good with white cars. Enjoy.

Very nice! Great pics!

I love the last pic, but it would look even better with a BMW emblem

My Ride: I have an 05 545i. It's a manual with a few options. This is my first BMW but I don't know how I'll ever be able to switch to something else.

Very nice work, that car looks beautiful with those rims.

I can't believe how dirty that engine bay was!
