Bodyshop just finished with it today ! Now its back to BMW to have the cameras in the new performance bumper re-programmed, super-guarded and ready for handover.....

Seems to be taking forever, hopefully tomorrow !

Then its to the tyre depo to get the 22" rims fitted with 15mm H&R spacers front& 285/35/22 tyres and 30mm spacers rear &315 /30/22 tyres.

Then Its finished for now ;-) Baring the Lowering and carbon firbre wrapping !

PS - Anyone know the front axle load for a X6m 50d ??? just to make sure I order the correct H&R lowering springs etc .....  ;-)
