    Dude it’s like you read my mind 110%. I’m currently saving up for a 2000 - 2003 E39 BMW 540I, and had the plan to put all of this in my future car (plus the back doors), as well as an OEM looking apple carplay head unit. You got taste my friend, thank you for making this video that I’ll surely revisit when I get the E39 one day. 👌

      If you mean the paint color of the car its just the oem graphite metallic grey, it looks reflective because I had the car fully paint corrected, buffed and polished about a month into ownership, it really brought back the paint it makes it looks alot newer!
