Amit (E60BEEMER) had his 530d painted Silverstone II. Ridiculous cost but looked great, until he crashed it into a tree.

He's not been on here much lately since having it repaired.

Maybe send him a PM for info

I believe factory paint is baked after painting where as repaints...usually spray and lat it dry...no baking.
