Is it Platinum Gray Metalic color outside?
Yes, is that Platinum Gray?

If so that's my color. Looks great.

The local dealer has the LCI in the showroom. It is a 525d M Sport. See the new lights below:

Attachment 29877
The dimpling on the paintwork is of concern.

I noticed that on the Deep Sea Blue one saw in my local dealership yesterday. Seems a lot more noticeable than my pre-LCI version. Do you think they've changed the paint process again in order to get even greener.

Rear light consists of light conducting rods supplying the rear running lights. Break lights are behind the rods w regular bulbs as far as I know. Turning lights are all LEDs.
