New Mods to the X5!

CJP5 · 01-12-2011, 04:53 PM

The pics show the transformation from stock to what I consider one bad arse X5! Added the black grilles, wheels, clear reflectors, factory aero kit and ACS exhaust tips. Think I'm done for now and really happy with it.

That's nice! The black kidneys make all the difference!

Love the storm trooper look.

Did you have your rims refinished?

Whut24 · 01-15-2011, 10:42 AM

Are you rims gloss black or matte black?

bavarian19 · 01-17-2011, 05:15 PM

nice

vladberca · 02-19-2011, 08:45 PM

Great upgrades!

Donibm · 03-02-2011, 07:52 PM

You should change out the mesh too (since u made the grill black - make it all black and keep it uniform).

Try to fit the ACS rear exhaust box as well - I did the full rear ACS exhaust today ( BMW allow this mod and does not effect the motorplan and guarentee ) plus installed a
K&N air filter and now have the real V8 rear sound and M3 like engine howl - would definitley recommend this mod as it seems on low revs the exhaust sound is just above standard but when you floor it you start grinning ear to ear. Cheers

looking great! I'm in DFW as well =)

Just picked up a 4.8 for my wife yesterday. Where did you get the ACS tips from?

CJP5 · 03-03-2011, 09:00 PM

Installed the new taillights today, huge improvement in look both during the day and at night. The brightness at night looks awesome.

I like the front end a lot. Black grills against white paint > stock.
