My Ride: 2008 550I LOADED, all options except HUD and NV
nomis, those rims aren't as bad as others I have seen (they do remind me of AWG's old ones though). Still, even those would look much better with black centers, just IMHO. Other than that you know the car look great. I am still looking for the link to "envy" - where is Gene?
HERE NOMIS - I FINALLY FOUND IT, MAY I PRESENT - ENVY!!!! (p.s. please do not do this to your car):

Phew, I just went through it all.
A few thoughts... well, he certainly set himself apart. I assume that it's a pet project that he took upon, as I was not aware they even make those things for the lights. I mean, it's not particularly horrendous, just very... "huh"-ish. One of those times you would say "huh" and have no comment about.
With that said, I am terribly surprised that the person didn't go chrome wheels and grills? Wtf? Now that just don't match, hahaha.
In any case though. That's not for me. Especially putting crazy letterings on my car. I actually debadged mine. Looks a lot cleaner.
