Love the black roof on white cars. Looks great Mike

I've considered getting my top wrapped, but my car's
Titanium Silver, which doesn't quite create the same
contrast
as with an Alpine White car.

YES! Chrome does not belong on a BMW. Period!

Plus, Shadowline Trim makes the car look so much sportier and helps ease the flow of the car. The lines of the E60 are not the best and having shadowline helps make the flow of the lines much more subtle. This should absolutely be your next mod.

Also, when driving around with chrome trim, it's obvious to those that know BMW's that your car does not have the Sport Package.

That all said, do it!

IMO it will blend in more if you paint the trim flat black but regardless nice A/W
