Thanks for the tip, but i do think the car looks nicer with chrome kidney grilles.
It matches good with the chrome where the fog led lights are.

If I just could get the non-badged M6 kidney grilles in black chrome.

Yeah agree. I did CF ones on mine I just picked up. Like the subdued look especially since Msport has shadow line black trim.

X-drive is nice, but with over 2-3 feet snow some good winter/snow tires is much needed. I do have a set of 19" wheels Style 423. Im going to my dealer next week for a set of brand new winter tires Winter is coming soon....

Bad quality, only one I have with those wheels.

Not that much snow this year, but i have to agree that x-drive would be nice on this car. My old F10 with rwd was much better winter car than this one.

I'll probably get x-drive on my next car.


But i do plan to get some new winter/snow tires, my Nokian Haka R2 was way to soft on this car. So i might change to Michelin x-ice xi3 or newer one next time.
