After looking for months, finally got my '04 545i.. yeah! Love the power and the way it handles! So far, I've tinted the windows, changed out the kidney grills to matte black and have the holes drilled (half-way done) for the fender grill... more mods and pix coming soon...

getting TONS of ideas from this forum of where to 'invest' my money...lol...

Those mods have to be funded somehow

3-pc wheels are out of my budget.. probably try and find something used or something like a set of VMR/Miro later down the road.
