Looks awesome front to back, side to side…Nicely Done! I’ve got a similar mod list on tap for when my Dark Graphite Metallic 550i (hopefully) arrives in approx. 3 weeks. I think the Cerium trim pieces look pretty good on your ride as they provide nice contrast with the black paint. They could get lost if you go gloss black. I’m going to try CF for my side mirrors, front and side vent pieces.

Thanks... Car not lowered. Concerned it’s already to low in front given Chicago weather. Also will need spacers for wheels.

It looks great I think. The side skirts give it that lowered look I believe. Love the diffuser makes the back end look really aggressive. Good job with the mods.

Looks great. Bad ass. I might change the fog light eyebrows (if you had fog lights) to black or maybe wrapped. I would leave the side cerium alone.
Did you have windows tinted all the same? Is the windshield tinted? I going to get mine tinted today. VA only allows 50% on front windows and doesn't allow windshield. I going to get 50% on both side windows but can't decide on back. 50% or 35%. I have sunshades on all the back windows and I like driving at night with rear sunshade up to block headlights. Is 35% plus sunshade to much for at night?

Not a fan of the lip, either, simply because it lowers the front end clearance. I constantly worried about this when I had my M4. The M550i, with stock front end, might have cleared the ladder I hit on the expressway which did $5100.00 in damage to the oil and transmission coolers and the radiator of my M4. But this is a beautiful car! Mine is the same color. I, personally, like the contrast of the black with the cerium parts. Thinking about the diffuser myself. Congrats on a beautiful car.
