as i said before in another post i am waiting for my 530i with m-tech kit, i am planning on buying m5 rims and m5 front fenders and bumper and vorsteriner front lip and hood but i am having a hard time trying to decide if i should go with carbon black(which ive never seen personaly) or alpine white(anyone i chose with beige interior). so i figured it would be a good idea to ask what do you guys think about these colors in a car with the parts already on(m5 front and wheels plus vorsteiner front lip and hood) thx

Carbon black. Hard to keep clean but it looks awesome when it is.

Love both. But I would have to go with Carbon black. Black is hard to keep clean though but you can get some nice effects in pictures. You can't get some nice reflections and color out of a white car. But white does look sexy. GL with your decision.
