My 2022 540 in Black Sapphire Metallic

Picked her up this past weekend. Loving every minute so far.

Wow, looks great! Makes me wish I went all black as well. How long did it take for you to get the car?

I honestly got lucky and my local dealer had it in stock.

Somebody backed out of a deal (apparently it was somebody trying to scam the dealership), so I jumped on it as fast as I could. It wasn't a special order, I think it was just a car they had coming in.

Looks really nice op. Many miles of smiles to come.

beautiful! make sure to get the ind painted reflectors, and while your side mirrors are already black, some m5 mirrors from amazon (very cheap) will set off the look!

Good thing you jumped on it right away! I definitely wouldn't have slept well if I missed out on that opportunity. 😆 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Love it! Just picked up a BSM yesterday.

Did you tint the taillights? I feel like mine are so damn red!

G30Nashville · 11-29-2023, 02:44 PM

I did not tint the taillights. Love the look.

Congrats! I have the same exterior spec on my ‘21 550, except for red calipers. Just wanted to second the recommendation for the body color IND reflectors. Makes a huge difference on the dark color cars.

Maybe replace the shiny 540i badge with a black one or better still lose the badging altogether
