Checked and they're out of stock of the 540i
Sorry about that. I like your idea of just a black "5i" though.

No apologies needed It's good to know that they do offer it. Just a matter of catching it in stock.

bimmian will take special orders too. when i got my 525i each number came individually wrapped so there is no reason you could not request a 540i since they make the 4 anyway.

bimmian.com has black "540i." You'd have to order two sets. One 540i and a 525i.
Genius MAN!!!! Thats why you get the big bucks!

Just spoke to BIMMIAN and they said they will have the 545i shadow emblem in about 3 weeks, said its being made.

I mentioned and group buy and he good with that....10 people get a so so discount....20-30 is a substantial discount. Now I know this is a cheap item to start with but hey every penny counts?

I would want a set too, as the last I heard was from a guy at bumperplugs.com who said they could make them for about $100!!! Plus the wait while I purchased the numbers and sent them to them!!!(was he freakin' kidding???). So if Bimmian is making them and at a discount to boot, I most assuredly would want a set too!! Thanks for doing the legwork and nailing down a supplier for all us 545i guys!

I have a couple questions for whenever you talk with the supplier: are they black chrome or flat black or gloss black and/or can we get carbon fiber? will there be different finish options? does the group buy have to be for all of the same finish? thx.
