Nice job .... Is it ok if I copy  :)

How much des it cost to get that done if you don't mind me asking? And what did you use for the rear lenses?

Another thing I'm looking at is getting the fins for the back window along with the performance style spoiler and Hamann style spoiler for the top of the tailgate, but finding it hard to find anywhere to get them from ad installed ?

Mmmmm... I don't think ' Hully Gully' will look any good ???  ;-)

Flyeyeskit for the rear lenses. Bmw performance side skirts and rear diffuser was around 1400 fitted. Don't bother with Hamann rear window lid I had one on my 40d and it doesn't really set off the slats or perf rear lip spoiler.

Unfortunately, yes, as long as they don't reduce the light output too much.  Like you I can't see any sensible reason why a sane person would deliberately want to dim their safety equipment at night  ???

Thank everyone ...

So Snipez.... You think the performance spoiler with the slats looks better without the Hamann ? Yes I think you may be right. What wheels do you have on yours ? I posted a question about this, but I reckon you will be able to let me know ...  ;-)

Spacers & wheel figments ?

Cheers

Big pokey tongue for both you old guys.  I like them so there.

I have style 232s (I think) 19 inch wheels colour coded for winter.  No issues with fitment as they are made for the X6 and the 50d is quite happy with them on.
