I could try and help. I will ask my dealer in Germany for a set of OEMs.
Driving to Munich end of next week with my job.

Thanks for the offer but I've decided against it as I'm quite happy with my silver one for now.

I'm more than happy with my Adaptive LEDs as they're essentially exactly the same as the Laserlight save for the laser module which I wouldn't get much use out of anyways.

Harmon Kardon is quite good. Much better than the already good BMW Advanced system I had in my pre-LCI 66 reg 730d.

If the grill is off-putting then I'm sure you will find an Extended Shadowline spec, although honestly I prefer the chrome

While the 750Ld is an amazing machine, I'm not really sure how 4 turbos would fare after some years. Sounds like maintenance hell haha. Incredible performance though.

I meant with the massage function. I have heated, ventilated and massaging seats front and rear.

I like to be able to travel in comfort.

Hey what happened with the grilles. Did you find black replacement? If not PM me. I got some on eBay. The quality is fine - not as good as OEM but they look great. Changed the whole look of the car.

That's great thanks, but I have a G11 LCI. Unfortunately those grills won't cover the garage door of mine
