Hi all,

A lot of people have really cool mods on this board, mods that i wish I could afford. But since I can't right now, I have to settle for things like license frame, rear deflectors and a trunk spoiler.

I was looking at some bmw license frames on ebay and this one cought my eye:

I just wanted to see what you guys think. I know it's not real carbon fiber, but it still looks cool. I have an orient blue 525i, and I never liked my current chrome license plate. I never liked chrome period...

If anyone knows of any better license frames out there please let me know.

It would be nice without the BMW logo's on it. I got this one below:

It comes with nice little plastic covers to cover the screws. Just your more glossy generic black frame. It's heavy out of metal, not plastic which accounts for the price I think.

It's the one I used on my black XI - blends in well and brings no attention to the frame itself.

I'll sell you my chrome license plate frame for $22 shipped. I paid 35+ for it but that was through the dealer with a gift card.

What color of License plate frame suits good for Silver gray (A08) ? Chrome one?

Doubt carbon black would look good on Silver Gray...

Chrome. It'll match your chrome door trim.
