I just installed my OEM gloss black kidney grills on my AW 2008 e60, and would love to see some photos of other AW e60s and your mods to get inspiration. I'm considering a few things (roundels, tint, etc) and would appreciate any photos you would be willing to share. For example I'm not big into carbon fiber stuff, but I can't help but be intrigued by CF roundels. I also love my gloss black kidneys, but wonder what the matte kidneys look like on an AW e60. I'm also wondering if anyone has refinished their 172s to gunmetal or black and how that looks on with AW.

I'll try to post some picts of mine tomorrow.

I think there was a thread created dedicated to white E60 only.

I was thinking the same thing, but apparently there is an BMW color code Arctic White sold in Europe for the 3 series. I haven't any info on an e60 tho.

looks like alpine white to me, Im sure the UK just calls it a diff. name

Oops, I meant Alpine White :-) Sorry about that, had a couple of drinks tonight ;-)

5e60er,
Is your AW a sport model or not? Your car looks awesome, just curious which config you have.

What level tint is that? Looks pretty dark, you ever get a ticket for it?

Limo, no tix yet on the 5 but got a couple with my old A4... That ticket completely depends on the "discretion" of Mr Porky. It gives any cop an excuse though...
