2006 3.0d X5

Post by Winter20vt » Fri Feb 27, 2015 8:33 pm

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 :-[

Image

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  :-[

Oh and these turned up a few days ago, 25mm + 30mm H&R black line hub centric bolt on spacers :)

: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!  ;)

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.
