My Ride: '08 528i, Premium, Nav, heated seats, iPod, Xenon
This is everything I bought:
1 Duplicolor kit (black) $20.00
1 BMW Caliper sticker kit from Sticker Culture (Ebay) $6.00
Because I don't have a floor jack, I did one wheel at a time. It took me about 2-2 1/2 hours to do. I did 3 coats. The kit was very generous on paint. It also came with cleaner and masking tape! Too easy. This was one of the cheapest upgrades I could do.
Thanks again for all the
