Sungod, it looks amazing. I'm on the same path as you mod by mod, let me ask you how did you do the roof rails, paint, wrap or did you get new ones

I am on the fence about the tinted tail lights i am not a big fan of how the tinted lights look. Id love to see some pics of tinted lights looks like some jobs are better then others

The turn signals are the next mod.

Thanks for the feedback keep it coming
Mine before and after, it's the lightest tint the guy had for tail lights, I will have to ask the brand and % next time at his shop. I think if they are too dark it looks cheap. He also had enough left over to tint my reflectors as well.

I like what you did. I just bought my x5 3 days ago. My tires are the 255/55/18. I like your tires and rims. What size our tires/rims?

I have the same color combination and think the aluminum roof rails kill the buzz. How to you change to black. Where did you buy at what was the cost. Thanks in advance.
