My Ride: BMW 550i
Default New 550i owner with pics.

I just recently picked up my '07 550i and have been enjoying it! It's still stock, but won't stay that way hopefully. I did change the stock angel eye bulbs for some whiter ones and also painted the wheels gunmetal gray.

I predict your next purchase will be new tires.

Hello and welcome to the forum! Congrats on your new ride, it looks beautiful! What exactly are you planning to do to it? A lot of good info here regarding mods in case you are thinking of doing any. Check out some of the garages and you may get some ideas. Enjoy your time here!

I'm not quite sure yet. I do want to black out the grills since I'm not much for Chrome and I like to have the angry looking headlights stand out a little more. Gives it character I think. I'm also thinking about a tune for it. I know I won't gain much, but if they can fix the off-throttle lag I'd be happy. I don't like how it stays wot for a half second after letting off.

Thanks! It's got 93k on it. The guy was an absolute fanatic about keeping it prefect. There is absolutely zero wear on the interior.
