7 Series (F01/F02/F03/F04) BMW 7-series (F01) M-sportpackage

chrome on a ///M pack bumper = blasphemy. Yet another stab at the ///M philosiphy.

Other then that, I definitely like the shape of the bumper and the overall look of the kit. I hope there is another set of optional bigger wheels.

Yeah its almost like they're trying to go after the S-Class AMG kit buyers. Even the AMG S doesn't have that much chrome.

Chrome on the rear bumper looks terrible, the front it bearable but I think it would look better (help me out here Bimmer boys) that optional extra for the shifter where the metal is a lor darker?

All in all the front bumper looks good, needs nicer rims tho

You're talking about the 'ceramic' option for the interior.

The kit looks half baked. Chrome strips could have been more slimmer. BMW could have done a better job, the strips tacky.

Yes thats it, I forgot the name!

If BMW offered ceramic strips instead of chrome, the appearance would be much better.

The chrome on the bumper needs some time to get use to it. It stands out quite a bit, hard to focus on the whole car, probably because of the colour (black). I'm sure it'll look better in white or a lighter colour.

BMW has concentrated the chrome to distinct areas, the S Class AMG is covered in chrome. There is a difference.

Yeah right. The AMG S-Class most certaninly is not covered in chrome.

Personally I find both offerings from MB and BMW to be quite attractive. The 7er has the chrome bars while the S has the LEDS, which make both stand out.

So I'm a form-following-function kind of guy, but the lack of foglamps in lieu of massively pointless chrome is, well, dumb. This had so much potential, alas, it is poorly executed.

Also, the rear bumper does not jive well at all...not at all.

Looks like this is the V12 with M-sport… Looks fabulous!! LOVE it!!!

 

[martinbo]

I don't care about the chrome accents which don't bother me in any event - this car looks stupendously good.

some photoshoped pics…

Like the car with the chrome more - and imagine CF trim instead of this chrome!! Would go for chrome on a white/silver car and CF on dark coloured F01s!!

 

[Shining Star]

I actually like it without the chrome bars, it just seems a bit insubstantial.

 

[coolraoul]

Wow shiny! Trying to out-chrome the competition I see...
Seriously, what is with these enormous chrome bars? I guess the designer took the wrong pen to draw it, two sizes too thick...

Or did van Hooydonk see a 59' Caddy and found the delicate chroming very subtle and elegant on it?

Even with CF these stripes are waay too thick.

Other than that, looks quite good. Kidneys looks less oversized with the new bumper.

All the chrome BMW never used on previous models are suddenly used on the F01 M-sport, that I can live with (though a bit bling)...

The 760Li M-Sport looks absolutly GORGEOUS!!!
