Quick Pic - Mineral Grey F10

Haven't seen many Mineral Grey F10s on the forum...
Just did a quick wash, and took a snap with the phone

Opti Gloss-Coat
OCW on top

That looks very nice, and the CF looks great together with that color.

It's slightly different. Sophisto Grey is A90, while the Mineral Grey Metallic is B39.

It was hard to find a match for the front reflectors and Perf. Style Rear spoiler - had to get them custom painted. No vendors had MGM B39 for the F10.

What year is that? I didn't think they made mineral gray in F10. Mineral gray is actually lighter and has a silverish tone under the sun than my Dark Graphite 2 (DGII is similar to shophisto gray)

Hey there, it's a 2015 550i. A rare color for the F10, hence my comments about not finding paint matched parts for it.

http://www.autoevolution.com/news/bm...rch-91073.html

"On top of that, the 5 Series range now gets new color choices for both the Sedan and Touring models. They include Mediterranean Blue Metallic and Mineral Grey Metallic and both can be had with the M Sport package."

Yeah, its not a turn signal for the LCI... Just a chrome piece. The turn signals are located in the side mirrors for the LCI.
