What color grille would match best with that hood and color setup?
Also should I powdercoat my rims to blackout my car more or keep the silver look?
I plan on getting shadowline trim also(no idea where to buy OEM part though)
and that M emblem has been removed, I have no right to pose!

i think it could look good if you go with a "blackout" look
try photoshopping your rims, grille and trim darker.. could be a fun little project, or two!
otherwise, just get the shadowline, keep your grille and rims the same color, but maybe try some bigger shoes

Rims look fine - keep them the way they are. Definitely no CF on the grills - maybe of your car was lighter it would work. If you go shadow line then go with the black grills (match them gloss for gloss, matte for matte), otherwise leave the stock grills.

No, the general consensus here on the forum is: M badges belong ONLY on M cars, yes a lot of us mod our cars to look more like an M5 (mainly because that body kit is the most tasteful and best looking), but I would not put an M badge on my 530 - I know full well it's not an M car and never will be. Save the badges for the M
