Cracking job there, it’s looking great.  I hope the weather doesn’t ruin that for you with you first drive!

Lovely car and space grey hides the dirt very well (speaking as a previous owner) My "carbon black" one just looks dirty 5 minutes after washing!

I'm in two minds whether to remove the 'X5' part of the rear badges, just leaving the ///M50d part, as there are too many badges for my liking. Anyone else done the same?

I agree, there are too many. I reckon removing the ‘X5’ might be a decent option.

I was hoping that someone here had done it, and has some pictures!

Here’s a slightly crude mock-up of how it might look, albeit on a black car.Image

Shame they had to put such ‘in your face’ badging on.  I’m sure it could have been a little more discreet...
