Well hanging out at this forum from time to time made me wont to go black with the grill and with the black exhaust tips.
I wont to jump and get the SB SPR2026A for my 08' 525i Sport Limited Edition when the summer hits although I wonder where I could get in Miami for the best price? Andy Wong is my answer?...
Here is a couple prior photoshops Ive done with my 5'er where I made the black grill and exhaust... I never thought I would wont to go black with the grill and the exhaust influence of the "vtherussian" member if Im not mistaken with the spelling dude! but it was you that making me go black!

I couldn't find that part# you mentioned. As far as I know, there are only two types of SB for an E60, auto and manual. I have auto and yes I can ship it to Miami.

My Ride: 2006 525XI, Jet black on Dakota beige. Premium and winter packages. I consider myself a purist and intend to keep my car absolutely stock and shiny.
2008 328I Convertible, Sapphire black on beige interior. Premium package, NAV, iPod adapter.
Retired: 2002 325I, Titanium silver on black leather. Premium package. Absolutely stock and proud of it.
I have to admit that it looks good. I also wonder how many people would go silver if black was standard?
