Nice car. Apparently, you like black a lot. Enjoy it.

BTW, it's "grille" not grill. A grill is something you buy at Home Depot to cook stuff.

Nice! Did you have the rims painted or is it a new BMW option?
You might want to double check your iPhone camera, something is very wrong.

Thank you. I did them myself.
And there must be something wrong because on my browser and computer the pictures look completely fine...

Self painted huh? Looks real good. Wait till the first tire shop gets hold of them though. They will rip the hell out of that soft spray-paint.

Oh and edit: while you are at it, get up under the tail and paint that tacky hanging muffler with some thermo-resistant black. I really hate that bmw let it hang down like that, it really ruins the rear profile.

Black beauty. All the way. Great black e/tips. I spend too much time polishing away the carbon from my chrome e/tips. Smart choice.

Curious to know how this holds up to the high temps of the exhaust.

Or I actually forgot to take the little plastic protector off my iPhone at first.
