Phil,
My E34 had the Premium Package plus every extra on it except for the BMW telephone so not much I can add. Anyway, besides the JC Chip, I have added a complete a Hartge/VDO gauge cluster ($400 w/Oil pressure, Oil Temp and Voltmeter gauges, sender and special adaptor) set of Euro lights ($300), Custom sheepskin covers for front seats, arm rests and head rests ($450), BMW Chrome exhaust tips ($40), BMW chrome license plates ($40) and am awaiting a set of BMW rear headrests ($265. Only the M5 and Olympic Edition had them in the U.S.).I use Mobil1 in the engine and put the latest BMW synthetics in the gearbox and the rear axle it is good advice to add synthetics all round.
If you would like to see pictures of the gauges and clears/Chrome trim I can send them to you.
