new snaps of my 545i

Fail, tailpipes look naff (mine only has one and is putting out not much less than yours) on the first pic I assumed the light cluster had debris in it and has become clouded but that's obviously just the smoked style, I'm going to assume you bought it on the bay as an uber bargain and intend to break up the mods and revert back to standard.

This one is similar to your, but has the changes people seem to be recommending. no smoked lights or quad pipes.

Hi Tristan,
The PH collective are a lot more to the point as compared to bmw5 aren't they!
The wheels I believe are from the Miro brand and are their iteration of a 'CSL style' wheel in 20 inch sizing. Miro, are actually a decent mid level brand and their market is mainly the USA. Black wheels, on a black car and as I've mentioned before, you might as well have gone for steel wheels! the 2nd picture is what I mean as you can't really tell what the wheels are!
The 'big' E60 V8's are indeed heavy depreciators, along with any similar engine from any other marque. A lot of car for the money for sure!
I'd tend to agree with the notion of putting wheels on which at least have a polished/chrome/steel lip so it breaks up the black somewhat and you can see you have 20's and not 16 inch steelies ! I'd also consider some subtle colour coded bits to also break up the black, very discreet, and no, I don't mean just the brake calipers
Cheers, Dennis!
