Thx !

Brilliant white has a little more "sparkle" to it , very similar to the Perl effect white on
the Audis. It is a tough color to take pictures of and it looks different in every light.
I can also see how it might drive folks nuts as some parts of the car will sometimes
looks as if the paint doesn't match and a few minutes later it does ...

I am lucky enough to know a few folks at BMW and was able to get the grills
paint matched, glossy black exhaust tips (like the F10 M5 Sport models in the
UK) and also swap out the trim for the ///M Performance trim. Also wanted to
the ///M Performance Steering Wheel but it's not yet available .
