The car looks great with all of the windows covered in shaddow line trim

This is now one of my favourite cars here in the E61 forum. There is something about the blue paint with black trim/grill, m-sport kit, the drop and those BBS. A really fantastic transformation and still retaining a lot of class

IMHO a set of M5 Mirrors would round it off perfectly. (I have sold my old ones, but you could ask Arne where he got his reps from or otherwise get an OEM set from Schiedmann, like I did.)

Enjoy!

I have considered those also. How is it done exactly? Does it need some coding at the dealership? My standard mirrors have heating, fold function and lights underneath and I don't want to give up any of those..

Those mods you have done changed tha car totally...like the others said black on that blue is beautiful

I have a different opinion about the M5 mirrors I like those originals and don´t see the big difference. I wouldn`t change them...
