Very cool zxy! Make sure to carry a stick in the trunk to fight off all the chicks that'll be flying @ you from every direction. You'll get used to it though. I have... 
Anyway, what percentage tint do you have on front and back? Looks good!

very nice! I like it a lot! I want to do the same to my ti silver e60!
How would you rate the shadowline trim? I have seen the DIY, but am a bit nervous.
where did you pick up the rims, Gary at Tire Rack? OEM or replica?
thanks for posting....I like your ride

Sorry for the delay in replying - i haven't checked this thread recently.
The shadowline trim makes a big difference - particularly on silver. I don't think think the chrome trim on a silver car looks right. Something about the change in colors makes it distracting. I got the trim and wheels (OEM) from Gary at BMW of Newport. I am the least handy person i know and i was able to do the shadowline install with no problem.
PM if you get around to it and have any detailed questions. The DIY is really good but if you are concerned about any details you can give me a shout and i'll try to help you out.
