My Ride: 2004 545i 6spd Man, 19' Breyton Wheels, Ipod Install, Parrot Bluetooth, AC roof and Trunk Spoiler
I just picked up my 545i on friday, I must say I love this car. I have been searching for 3 months for a 6 speed Manual. and Finally I got one. 04 50k miles $28k
Here is the Spec.
6 Spd Manual Sport Package
Premium Sound Package Logic 7 6 Disc
19 inches Breyton Magic Racing
Electric Rear Sunshade
Here is my car history: 99 323i Man, 01 330ci Man, 02 540i 6sp man, 02 X5 4.4l auto, now 04 545i 6sp man
Of all the my other car, I must say the 545i is the best.

Hey, welcome to the forum. Car looks great!
Now, what are going to do about that curb rash on the wheel(s)? They look like chrome lips, so a good wheel repair place should be able to sand and buff those out with ease. I'd have them buff the lug hole areas too, which look a bit marked up. Aside from that, all looks great. Let the mods begin! Start with some AIB's V3.0.
Good luck!
