Hate to say it, but I have to agree with the others...you need shadowline, esp on black. Chrome trim does not make the car look sporty or aggressive, regardless of tint, grilles or wheels. Outside of that though, the car looks great! It will look even better when lowered, but shadowline is a MUST! Congrats!

BMW of Newport (Rhode Island) - Garry Romani (Parts Manager). He gives E60.et members a 25% discount. I believe the trim is pretty cheap too. A lot of members on here have ordered the trim from him. You can get High Gloss Shadowline (like what's on the M5) or standard Shadowline which is on all the 5 series sport models.

As for the black grilles....eBay!
