Me too :-) And that's why I want to match it to Cerium Grey (for the kidney grill and the rims... I think it matches really well..

If there's anyone out there selling his cerium grey accessories, let me know :-)

4- swap M sport 21'' rims to 22'' 742-M rims
5- swap badge to cerium grey - DONE :-)

(if anyone has links on where to find these online... let me know)

Let me know if anyone is interested to get any of these parts (glossy black front trim grill, silver illuminated grill, etc.)
Congrats! Love the color and rims! Looks familiar to me Consuldean !!! https://g05.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...&postcount=177

So, given your question, it's a 40i with MSport? (Mine is an M50i, so I have all of the cerium grey parts you mentioned...but I'm also in the US, so don't know if that results it some difference?)

Very nice too :-)

This is indeed a 40i... for some reason, they decided to go for silver for the parts instead of Cerium grey... I didn't know that at the time of the order (I had seen the X6 first at the Frankfurt Motorshow and loved the combination of the Manhattan color with cerium grey).

I don't want to change the mirror caps but looking to change the grille (looking for an economic way to do it) and the exhauts contours.

I also realise that in Europe and US, the M50i comes with the 741M wheels whereas here, the M50i comes with the 747M in... cerium grey.

Did you choose the 741M or they came in standard?

Enjoy!

installed the 747M wheels and am in absolute awe - the car looks so much better with 747M than 741M in my opinion..

What do you think: Vote now:

Option 1: Keep the wheels as is.
Option 2: Paint the wheel face the color of the wheel pockets (dark gry)
Option 3: Go black

Also would like a front lip and software change to drop the air suspension but cant find anything yet.

I would say in the pics dark grey looks good but in reality the black may be the choice

Thanks for all the comments. It was a tough choice but I decided to black them out for a bit more of a contrast! I think it looks great. Now time for spacers and black emblems!! Still looking for a front lip, like the one on the X6M and a software mod to drop the car a little.
