Just got my tint on my Tit. Silver 5er...got the black reflector inserts, and I am trying to get another 545i badge and painting it Black Chrome. Once I do all that, should I also go with the black roundels on the car? What do you guys think, look good or stupid? (i know, its hard to say w/out pics...)

My Ride: Jet Black 545i
Don't know how it would look on ti silver, but I'm thinking it would look great on jet black! It'll give it that 'stealth' look which I like. No black wheels for me tho, not my style.
How are you going to paint the 545i badge? Aren't you worried the paint may chip off or something?
