I don't think BMW makes, or I couldn't find any, spray paint. I simply matched a Ti paint from AutoZone. Make sure to clean the surface well and prep the area to be painted with adhesion promotor. It'll cost all of $10 and a couple hours of your time!

Are your headlights original with the amber piece removed? Looks great with the clears and chrome rims. I have a 2000 X5 4.4 that I want to remove the amber corners.

Yep...Headlight baking is a piece of cake. I wish I had removed the other lenses soooo, I'm going to re-bake, remove the lenses & install AEs soon. I did go ahead and install PIAA Extreme White bukbs all the way around (high, low & fog). What a differance.

I like your creativity a lot. With those tailpipes, it looks much more compact & sporty, to me, then 4.6is spoiler/pipes!
Your might wanna throw in running boards too!

Running boards are on the list...probably next month. I'm working on the interior now. So far I've got a hard wired V1 with conceeled display in the ashtray, BMW gas, brake & footrest pedals & chrome instrument rings. I've got a new M steering wheel on hand and woking my local stealer for a good price on the airbag & am about to order a Ti interior trim pakage (my light poplar will be for sale soon). I'll certainly post pics once complete but want to wait to get the full affect

Speaking about trend! Since your so good with taping, you can maybe paint lower part of front bumper before you install the decorative skid plate. Because I think it's impossible to put plate over 4.6is front spoiler!?!? I've never seen that combination before!

I thought about the front but there's not a clear line to delineate a egde
