I like the taillights as well. At least their tint, as I can't see much other detail on the pic.

What suspension and lowering do you have?

I lowered the car with H&R springs on front, rear i changed the hight by making a set of shortened connectors that connect the rear wisbone with the hight sensor, and all around i used bilstein shockabsorbers.

Gorgeous! Is there something different about that rear bumper? It looks different than the US Version 535xi touring.

We have the "M-tech" which basically looks just like it. Was available as an ordered option or post production oem ad-on.
