Bought this with no intention of changing anything. That soon changed O:-) have to say this has to be the nicest car I have owned/driven, just feels amazing quality :-[

Few minor alterations include, Osram Xenarc bulbs, matt black kidney grilles, front and rear LED lights, smoked tail lights, areo rear wiper arm, and I have some black side repeatera on order but they are taking an age to turn up! Future plans are remap (probably Rtech) powdercoat the alloys black, 4.8is bumpers, drive it and enjoy it!  :)

Love the leather and dark poplar interior  :-[

:ok:

And yes, best car I have been able to own.

Got the rims, arches, LED rear lights, no spacers (doesn't bother me), 'is' kit done, plus lots more. Did that interior too - good option but be careful with the wood jokes. I got ribbed!

Great colour too!  ;)

Ok my joke just totally failed there :))

Have you got a build thread for your X5 bud?

No the joke didn't fail - bad day, still working.

The rolling eyes were for x555 (Mitch), he's a complete *anchor but I love him.

Isn't it one from an E70?  I know it fits and a few have done the mod.
