XSeries-forum

Hey, So a few of you may be aware I was looking at making some cosmetic mods to the X. I am very pleased the way she came out. Tell me what you think... oh, and there is no shame in admitting Blue is the Best! 
Here are some before's... lots of washing (and Amorall:)
And after's 

Looks good, have to say the bullbar looks particularly good, must have been someone good that made that lol.  Seriously though I like the silver.

I do like the 4.8is body kit and was about to do the same to mine in 2006. Had all the pars gathered up and then went and got rid of the car. However I'm not a fan of the bull bar.

No, Ebayed them once I knew the e53 was going.  I gathered the parts up from eBay too.

Looks superb after the mods. Nice touches.

Thanks guys, gotta say thanks to Shad for the bar, came up really nice, and I like the way it matches the "Titanium" grills.

Can I ask where you got the rear light clusters? They look nice.

Sorry Rossco, I bought the X5 with those lights... aren't they standard?

Well guys, I RRSport 2010 or X5 E70. Any thoughts?

The rear lights look standard.

And if it was me, E70 all the way.  I have less faith in LR Dealers and product reliability than BMW.  My experience with LR is that they are pretty poor overall.

That does look nice  great colour too.

ive just got rrs and it is nice though it doesnt handle like a x5 its very comfortable, but there are bits that are poor build quality imo, overall nice car and after having bmws for 10 years in all shapes and guises normally 2 at a time its a refreshing change, also alot les mpg than eqivelent x5

I feel like a complete fud, I'm looking at the pics in black and white!!!

Latest update: She has been shipped to Trinidad (Caribbean... and the X5 not the Mrs  ). Was thinking of selling her, but needed something to drive when I went there. Trinidad has one of the worlds largest Asphalt lakes (exported to the UK for road construction/ repairs) and yet has the worst roads with ponds for potholes!
So she's there soaking up the sun, and I'm here, thinking about the possible rough winter ahead... I do like the E70, will keep you posted.
Few pics of her there...

lmao as if my bull bars at the other side of the world!
