Hello, as most of you know by now I'm a picture whore. Here is my latest. This weekend I put on my matte black grills, carbon fiber hood/trunk emblems/center caps, black chrome 530i badge, and painted my calipers black. I have to say that painting the calipers was a chore with that caliper paint kit! It didn't help that it was 95 degrees out!
That's all I have for now...enjoy

The shipping was fast (3 days) and the quality is excellent. It looks like all of his prices went up $10-$20 in the last few days.
