Nice congrats....I have a question did your car come with some type of light under the side mirrors, my salesman never showed me this feature and I was just amazed and figuring where this light was coming from last night when I clicked on the unlock button
PS
I have not read the manual and my salesman and I were trying to figure out how to set the seat memory on the car......the 04 I had was easy ....click on the "M" for memory and the desired number and it the seat position was memorized
Once again nice car and congrats

Thanks guys. I'm very much enjoying the car right now. Actually i've had it for a month already, but just got the time to post some pic right now.
SLVR530i, yes it does have a white light underneath its side mirors.
Only thing i've done so far with the car is i changed the fog lamps with extreme force bulbs. I'm happy with the result, it matches the color of the xenon quite well. Will try to post some pic soon.
And i also put black colored vynils on the BMW emblems. What do you guys think? Is it better blue or black?

[/quote]So what do you suggest i should switch the fog lamps to? How big is this risk you're talking about?
If you look at the pics above, my BMW emblems are black and white instead of Blue and white. It's somekind of a sticker that goes on top of the blue portion of the emblem. Not sure how long the stickers will last, but so far they have gone through 2 car wash and still look fine, no peeling, no color change.
