Thanks, not sure yet.....its my first BM so Im just letting it sink in for now but was researching rims, headers, exhaust, just been looking at all the options out there, which there are plenty of them. But I think the very first thing I do is change out the HID bulbs to 6000k....I believe it came with 4300k?

Thanks, yea looks like mods are costing a pretty penny for now Im just happy I chose this car I was actually shopping for a Benz e350 but couldnt find one I was satisfied with in my pricerange. I believe I made the better choice with this 545i.

I like Orient Blue which is a lighter blue than Carbon Black but darker than my Monaco Blue.
The early e60's came with ugly black plastic covers because the euro reflectors didn't meet US requirements. They then went to matching painted covers in 2005 or by 2006. The LCI finally came standard with rear reflectors which makes yours look newer and up to date.
