"BMW" as well. the thing with a chrome colored frame, i have one and i like it because it fits with the kidney grills and the window trim not being for sport package, plus my car color is light. for yours being sport, and darker, id say get black. just my opinion.

Made of steel??? That's adding weight to your car and making it slower. hahaha j/k

Now you're talking. I got this Carbon Fiber "style" frame off Ebay for $9 for my 545. It looks great, is made of steel, and is a bargain.

Just remember it is probably plastic, not carbon fiber for that cheap of a price.

Most CF frames are plastic with CF overlay. I have to admit, that's what mine is and it looks exactly like the picture of the "Competitor" picture on that eBay link. hahaha
I think I'll order these real ones. Who wants my old one?

My plate (as pictured in the Ebay link I posted earlier) is made of stainless steel that is painted to look like carbon fiber. So, despite its weight (which helps with rear wheel traction), it at least seems "strong" and is not flimsy like plastic.
