Project Matte White 5 Series...Full project pics inside!
Full project pics for a 2006 545i 4.4L I just finished up last week for a customer of mine...The 5 series used to be silver, and I completely changed up the color and sprayed it matte white...When the customer first came to me with ideas he wanted to a lighter gunmetal or even a matte black but I changed his mind and sent him towards the matte white instead. In my opinion the matte white is a much cleaner look than the traditional matte black or even gunmetal. I installed a set of Reiger side skirts (which have a great fitment set up FYI, very easy to install), a set of M5 fender vents, a M5 replica front bumper (I cut out the foglight brackets and left the vent holes open), and an M5 replica vented hood with power dome (the fitment was awesome, little adjusment needed). When winter time comes and goes I will install a set of coilovers of the customers choice, as well as a new wheel/tire setup, and a new full custom exhaust. Thanks for looking!

I agree 100%, but you gotta do what the customer wants! He wanted to run the M5 rear bumper but I talked him out of it for that exact reason. I couldn't talk him out of the fender vents though. When a customer is set on sumthin and won't give in to better ideas then you cave in and make em happy! Overall he was happy as can be... Thanks for the compliment tho, came out very clean!
Oh I know man... Gotta give the ppl what they want tho
