...yup - after true story - just picked up my fifth e60/d61 this tuesday. after a year f10, i could not find a replacement that quickly (wanted a 535d f10) so i opted to go for a 530d with SAT from build 2009.
my favourite e60 was definitely the 520dA (photos here) so i had to do something about the carbon black of the car..
this is the result - wrapped the car in white matt-finished - more pictures to follow once the weather improvfes :)

Very nice. Curious on the wrap, did you have the rails on the roof wrapped too? I'm going to have my roof wrapped next week and I was curious if they should do the side rails as well.
