If you're going to go all black, dont get the Miro M6 wheels because it's been done too many times. But other than that.. I love Black Out obviously.
Yes, its been done a lot, but most have the time attack red striping. Even if it is common, if it looks good, why not? There must be a reason why they're common

Um excuse me sir, but how the hell do you get your headlights like this? How do you get it so just the rings only light up? Is this the ANgel Eye bulbs you get that cancel out the main headlights? sorry it's a noob question, I just never really looked in to it that much.

I like the blacked out look. Just dont tint the tails unless its just the red part youre tinting. If you want some contrast get blak rims with a chrome lip or a time attack.

For older models like mine, you have to get the dealer to deactivate them. For newer E60s, you can shut them off in the IDrive.
