My Ride: Black/BlacK
A while back I had my side mirrors stolen around 156th and 35th ave in flushing, near the Ihops there. Well I decided to drop by that area again today to eat at ihop against the advice of my girlfriend who was with me. Luckily I missed the turn into Ihop and had to go around the block. Around 156th and 33rd Ave I noticed a 535xi with both side mirrors missing!! this dude was parked into his own driveway! I obviously decided to go to the Ihop in Long Island after a "I told you so" from my gf. SOOOOO WARNING IF YOU GUYS ARE AROUND THAT AREA SOMEONE IS JACKING 5 SERIES SIDE MIRRORS!! Don't our alarms go off?? I suspect it may be a dealership scam to get ppl to buy ~$600 mirrors!

Hope the owner of that 535xi isn't a member on this board...either feel sorry for him/her. Glad you didn't stop and park. Wonder where this guy is selling these mirrors?
