Hello peeps. I have black and white carbon fiber roundels so I was thinking of getting a carbon fiber license plate frame. I'm also trying to get a custom exhausst from Remus that has carbon fiber tips.
Just curious what you guys think of the frame. I currently have a chrome one with black "BMW" lettering. Here's the eBay listing for the frame:

and here's a pic of my roundel:

Haha how much weight can u save by switching frames??
Although the frame loks nice in my opinion, It's too insignificant to make the car stand out, i'd rather keep the money and buy a nice CD to listen to...

[/quote]Do those bolt right in to the 545i? How much weight do you think they save over the comfort seats? I would think they would, if used properly, eliminate some pit stops.
