CPO 2016 750i and Questions

Have had my 2016 750i for two weeks now. Pictures to come.

Color: 475 Black Sapphire Metallic
Interior: NAEW Ivory Wht/Blk Nappa
Trim: Fineline Black Wood

Options:

ZMP M-Sport Package:
M Wheel 648M w/ Perf RFT

ZDB Driving Assistance Plus
ZDT Driving Assistance Plus II
ZEF Executive Package 2

ZLU Luxury Rear Seating Package
776 Anthracite Alcantara Headliner
3DS Display Key
407 Panoramic Sky Lounge LED
4NM Ambient Air Package

Got 12% tints on all windows the week I got the car.

Looking to:
--> Install Black Grills (ordered off getBmwParts)
--> Get Spoiler (looking for recommendations and pictures)
--> Thinking about the rocker panel M-Performance film (maybe)
--> Thinking about powder coating rims black and blacking out chrome bar on
trunk and rear lights (Pictures?)
--> Maybe and exhaust (recommendations?)

I purchased a similar 2016 on August 9 but without the backseat toys you have. Magellan Gray MSport 750xi. I absolutely love it.

Also thinking of swapping to the black grille, spoiler, rear chrome bar, and MPerf film so interested to hear others feedback.

Good taste my friend.

I have the 760 spolier. Nice a clean. I also blacked out the chrome strip on the trunk. My car has night vision so I had to get my grill wrapped.

@Bmwtechgeek, why does night vision mean the grill has to be wrapped? Are black grilles not made with the nightvision camera opening?

Asking 'cause my 2020 will have chrome and I was hoping to swap out for black. (Cannot find any 2020 replacement grilles anyhow)

Thanx

I can't comment on the 2020 as this is an LCI year and BMW completely changed the grill.

As for 2016-2019 BMW never made a black grill with the hole for the night vision. You can only get it without.

The guy who wrapped my grill did a great job. He even laser cut each individual slat. Paid about $50.00

Do any of you guys know a place to get a gloss black painted 750i logo? Is the 760i spoiler the same as the M-Performance one you can get?

I think the spoilers are the same.
