I personally like the original finish, but they suit the dark colour. Congrats!

Any plans on hiding the front reflector? Replacing with a dummy (painted) reflector or perhaps 'plasti-dip'.

Car looking good!

I've recently put the M Style mirror caps on mine - little change but a huge difference.

It looks really good on the black car!

My M550 is bluestone, so I'll stick with the original grey wheels.

Once you get the mirrors done, you'l be all set.

I personally prefer the light wheels, but I dig the murdered-out look. Nice job. Sure makes your mirror caps stand out so it's good to hear you're fixing that.
