Howdy folks!

Glad to be on here and the great info that aided the purchase of the new used 2007 530xi Wagon. Picked it up here quickly with 49K miles in mint condition and some great features.

Now time to figure out this beast and keep her running smoothly! Looks like lots of great ideas for improvements and mods. I think bluetooth music will be the first up (and a proclip iphone mount). I think I need a nice European license plate for the front! Anyone have a 'spare' laying around. I guess I need someway to attach it as there doesn't appear to be a mount!

cheers,

Sorry for the crappy pic...I'll post better ones when I get the chance.

 

swagon, what suspension and drop are you running?

 

vash68 - running H&R Sports Springs in the front. as for the rear, I have custom self-leveling adjusters.

Rain, your car is BEAUTIFUL!!! Is it Deep Sea Blue Metallic? I was looking at a 2010 Deep Sea on Brown M-sport, but missed out on it by a day

 

Actually it is carbonschwarz metallic. Name says it is black, but in real, it is look more like dark blue.

Here's one link for bmw blue colors comparing the carbonschwarz color.

 

Mine is FLITHY compared to Rains, but I still love her

YUM, I LOVE Carbon Black, one of my favorite BMW colors!

 

I just picked up my wagon tonight from the body shop after having the complete OEM MTech kit installed. I will get some better pictures soon. Man, I should have done this a long time ago!
