As far as I know there aren't any pics of all Dark Silver yet.

My car (all Dark Silver) is supposed to be arriving at the dealers today.

If it arrives I will take some pics and post them ASAP.

Sorry Guys

My car has been subject to the two week delay mentioned elsewhere on the forum.

Won't be arriving at the dealers until 2nd July.

Yeah...I agree all DS looks really good. Think i'd need to see it for real to be sure but it does seem to look good from these mock-ups.

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but you will get BLACK mirrors if you go for the DS roof

IMO I don't like the R90s on DS, BMW heathrow have got them on their demo, DS/blk and they look kinda odd.
If you're near that area you should give it a look.
Sorry but I don't have a digi camera so I can't post a picture.
Anyone else nearby willing to oblige?

that's interesting.. and would save £2k too. going for test drive of works S in september and am thinking that's better way to spend the money (3.5k quoted by JCW). what did you dislike about the R90s on the DS (with DS roof)?

IMO I think they don't think they fit the wheel arches properly. All alloy and no rubber. On chilli red they look great, they've got them on their JWC too, but I've got a sneaky suspicion they've sold that as I haven't seen it for about a week. I think maybe there's not enough contrast in colour to really make them stand out, but hey that's just my opinion.
I personally prefer the 17s and that's what I'm going for, well and the fact it comes with the chilli pack

interesting.. the R90s look so much darker in the accessories brochure, with all that moody lighting! need to see them in the flesh i guess. all the wheels seem dam 'bright' next to DS, even the S spokes seem a bit too shiny. maybe some after-markets..
