My Ride: E46 M3
E60 530i
![Default](https://5series.net/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hi guys, just sold my M3 and purchased 530i yesterday. im so excited
i couldnt sleep last night lol.
Btw its an 04 mystic blue on black leather with around 30000 kms / 20 000 miles. its got premium package with heated rear seats and PDC.
my question is:
since this is the premium package, it comes in chrome shadow line, will i be able to paint this in black? just like the ones on sports package? Has anyone done this before? because most likely i will get some 20" rims in black, and tint the windows and put on a set of black grill.
btw its 2 hours and 15 minutes before delivery time... can anyone tell me what to do, im so excited and just cant wait
here are some pictures of my M3:

Congrats on the purchase, be prepared to waste all of your future free time on this forum researching what mods to do! Welcome to the forum!

THANKS!!
ricracing:
i might be 19, but i dont drive wrecklessly, i love my car and i dont street race. The accident happened when i was going 50 km/h, thats only like 30 mp/h, and suddenly this 65 yrs old man cuts in front of me from the opposite road, and i t-boned him. Its 100% his fault. Anyhow, everything is covered by the insurance company![Smile](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/smile.gif)
you can even see from the picture here, i was on the road with no stop sign or traffic light

Only 19??? Vancouver parents got too much money, haha. With that said, seeing SL's, S classes, 5 series, 7 series roll around Richmond (RichMAN, hehe) like they're Camrys and Civics. I remember seeing 5 SL's in the parking lot of the new T&T.
