i feel like i have hijacked your thread, sorry.

getting quotes for wrapping car so painting won't be an issue.

i wouldn't have thought that you don't have Pro nav screen as your car has everything else mate

Now hold on before you judge me, this is what i did for Large iDrive

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Replacemen...QAAOSwB09YSYvL

Proper way doing it was too expensive and i had already loads of mods to do But you never know might get done after all done
Nice
I like that sneaky mod


No I haven't got pro mate I picked sunroof over it

You are right Mineral Grey is popular colour at the moment and see more F30 and F32s in this colour .

I have had few cars wrapped and it cost between £1000 - £1200 but trust me you don't get same look as paint IMO

I think stick with black and M Performance kit looks amazing specially on Black cars , see this member's car
