My Ride: I GOT A 2007 TITANIUM GRAY/AUBURN LEATHER 545I 6SPD MANUAL. COLD WEATHER PACKAE, PREMIUM, PREMIUM SOUND LOGIC 7, SPORT.
Have you guys seen a charcoal filter on the inside top of the air box cover? I am trying to see if i can remove that thing? I am not sure if any other e60's have it, but the 550i definitely has it. What is the point of having two filters in that box? Would you say to mute the sound?
