Chrome.

Black one looks like the chrome one has fallen off.

Lovely. Prefer the original wheels the car came with though.

First up, which grille to I stick with? Chrome or black ?
Black, although I think most round 'here' are of the opinion that BMW kidney grills should be Chrome, and black grills are for a certain demographic.

I had a set on a previous 535iSE, with very good Avon Turbospeeds. I changed them to E34 BBS wheels, and couldn't give the originals away. I ended up taking a set of 5 to the local tip. I hate 'em. Awful. Grim.

Been a while since I could do much with the car what with weather, work and darkness.

I got chance to tidy up the centre console, fit an Alpine headunit, and an amp and sub into the boot. Not to everyone's taste I know, but I quite like a nice audio system. Just have some cables and the boot area to tidy up over the weekend.





Oh, and I popped the Superchips ecu in. Hopefully get chance to see if its altered the feel of the drive. It would be nice for a small midrange torque improvement, and rev limiter removal. Might cancel out the extra weight I've slung into the car with the audio rolleyes

No worries ! Not much happened to my car recently, just been getting some miles on it through late summer, and enjoying it.

Most M535i's seem to sprout up on Ebay. Quite a few ambitiously priced IMHO.
