Start thinking to get the RPI scoop for my 545 and would like to know whether I should go with the red or black color since I just installed the black grilles last week. I wish I could think of the RPI scoop before I put in the black grilles so I do them all at once.

That question just nailed it! It's a no-brainer really. Don't know why he's even asking!

for silver car, i would go for black... i just dont like to have red on silver...
silver and black is a good match in terms of color but silver with red is not a friendly color in terms of color scheme...
it is like you are putting white stuff on a silver car... i mean if you wear silver looking jacket with red shirt underneath it??

i own a silver 545i with black grills and my future mod is going to be RPI Scoops in RED. Im also thinking of painting my brakes in RED to so it will look nice all around. it gives it a sporty but classy look.. just my opinion... good luck with choice, hope this helps
