Yeah is in there.
But if we all just read the FAQs, it would be awfully quiet on this board

I think in light colors as white, silver and gray it looks better with red reflectors (i had them in my old silver gray 530) , now in a black car , I think it looks more sporty and better without them... anyone want a pair of barely used red reflectors? 
just kidding

My Ride: 2005 BMW 330i Orient Blue exterior Beigh leather interior with Wood trim, Premium package, Steptronic auto, Xenon headlights.
same here the day we got our 530i we added the red rear reflectors. 99% of E60's here in Orlando Florida do not have the reflectors. To me it makes our car more individual. Def looks better!

My Ride: 535D Sport Auto
No choice in the UK, they come std on all SE models. I think the only reason they look better is because the bumper looks odd with the cut outs in body colour. I'd like to see an SE bumper without either reflector or body colour pieces, just an all in one bumper. That would probably look the best.
When the E60 first came out you could always tell when you were coming up behind one from the 4 reflectors.
