Congrats on the HID's. They make a world of difference.
As for the wheels, I'm not loving the design or the chrome. Not a fan, but if you like them, that's all that matters.

Mate,
Awesome job. I love it. I've got an Alpine White Girl too ... 530d.
I notice in the photos that your driver door window sill trim is higher than that of the rear door. It is probably just the trim lifting off the door and you need to push it down with your hand. It happens to me too ... only the left door ... and I'm in Australia - where we drive on the wrong side of the road, so my car is RHD.
Sorry to be picky, but fix that trim and your car will be purrrrrrfect!!!
Cheers

Here it is. I didnt wash it and its dirty but you get the idea. I love it!!
-HID fogs - once the car was jacked up and the wheels were off it was so easy. Took 5 mins per side after i took the annoying screws out of that black matting. Its day time and i can already tell how amazing the fogs are. Thanks a lot BRABUSW209AMG. The hids and the plate leds look great and i recommend anyone who hasnt got them to get them through John. (still waiting on the angel eyes)
-I think it could be lowered a little maybe but i still think it looks great! Here are some pics: (flame away chrome haters)

Chrome... are you serious? Kidding, the wheels, along with the window trim is a nice compliment. It looks clean. Good job!
