New 5 series luxury

[hachi28]

Hello all, this is my first BMW and never had I imagine that I will own one.
So I am glad and happy to have it.
I prefer 5 series design as compared to E class. I always relate E class as a taxi since years ago.
Now BMW comes out with luxury design at an extra $7000, so I gave it a go at it.

Some may find that its not worth the amount and rather use that money for In Car Entertainment System. Such as Focal 3 way PS165F3 for front and rear(without mid bass), Focal 4 channel amp, Focal mono amp w/subwoofer, and a processor. As compared with BMW interior trims, leather stitching, chromes and illuminations on doors and door sill.
Guess I will set the priority for better looks/feel and sound comes second.

I did this to my benz before and I will continue polishing this new car every month for 2 over years with Zaino. Till then, the sealant will be thick enough to last a long time.

From the weld spatter around the weld on the silver plate, it certainly don't look factory weld to me. Where is this area? And that welded bracket seems to be raw metal piece with no surface treatment which is a definite no go for any automotive surface finishing. It would be prudent to highlight this to PML and question them on this. I would be interested to know what PML has to say on this.
