Thanks.

The 19" multispokes are horrendous to clean by hand. And I'm reluctant to jet wash them in case they flake in the long term.

Here's the rear end, with the SE strip and "H" missing!

Very nice!

Do what I did and debadge the the rear, a much cleaner look IMHO!
I am not a big fan of anything being called "sport" so that badge went as well (strange I know!)

Looking good SS, i wanted the dark atlas on the rear of mine but its only available on the SE thats two siberian silvers on the forum now Foxy will not be pleased Any plans to enhance it further shiny

VERY nice  FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy
Ex 2006 RRS SC - garbage
Ex 2016 135i M Sport - dream car
Ex 2003 RS6 Avant - piece of cr*p
Ex 2014 320d X Drive, M Sport Touring - ok I guess
Ex 2007 RRS TDV8 - bloody loved it
EX 2007 FL2 XS - not so bad

I hope Foxy won't be too upset, as it was pictures of her car that settled the color choice.

At the moment I've no immediate mods planned, so just settling in and enjoying it.

As time passes, perhaps the addition of Timed & remote Climate mod for next winter, but that depends on the aftermarket techs cracking the MY12 CCF system.

Also I can't decide on the look with side steps, but my youngest would appreciate them!

Perhaps a bit of lower body colour coding at some point.. RRS MY12 SE Siberian Silver, Ocean, Ivory and Walnut.

Agree, you just enjoy it, i'm sure foxy won't be too upset,

Looks great! The MY12 rear has really grown on me now.

I see what you mean about the wheels though. They look a pig to clean! WINNER - 2009 ‘Just Doing What It’s Designed To Do’ Award

I specced my SE with the Y spoke offroad wheel as I thought they would be more saleable, then changed them on delivery to 20" stormers again thinking that they would be easier to keep clean than the HSE multi spokes

You can run, but you can not hide!

Debadged means SE most of the time.....

I wouldn't worry about jet spraying wheels to be honest, you really need to be very careless with a domestic jet spray to do any damage to a new set of wheels. As long as you don't put a the jet spray closer than a couple of inches you'll be fine.
To help clean them, I'd recommend this, spray on, leave for 15 mins and then jets spray off and you'll have wheels that are 95% clean  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

I know what you mean, but I would argue that most people who debadge their RRS have HSEs, I'm with the Germans on this one, I hate badges on the back of cars, do it to all mine , ML AMG (top spec) , impreza STI (top spec), just looks better to me , it matters not a jot that I have a lesser spec!
