Agreed.
Mine was custom made by a guy in Latvia (coconat777 on ebay)
Its very glossy with a ton of depth. The M performance logo is underneath the clear; very impressive in detail. My lower pieces were originally finished silver, but I opted to wrap them in gloss black.

Dima, you will be happy to know that I was driving my M4 yesterday and happened to be following my wife driving the X5M. I got an entirely new perspective of seeing it on the road instead of behind the wheel, so I have fallen in love with it all over again! It looks very menacing and the wheels actually look darker on the road than in the photos too!

The final frontier; the Powerdome hood has been painted and ready to be installed.
Once that happens, the X5M will be complete!

Did you have to add a resistor for the LED rear bulbs? If not, can you share which ones you got? TIA

They are the OEM Euro taillights. They had to be coded.

Great looking X5M! It's clear you've put a lot of time, effort, and $$ into this awesome looking example. Just out of curiosity, how long are you planning to keep this M? Looks like you've had it for three years now and the mods keep coming!

You never know... I might consider selling it for the right price!

I hope it goes to a fellow enthusiast. Your eBay add write up is great and I doubt you’ll have a problem selling this beast. Sad to see and active forum member like yourself go though! Good luck with your future builds, your X5M build has been really fun to follow.

That is also one hell of a deal whoever buys it at that price! That thing is loaded head to toe with everything the after market has to offer.

Thanks brother! A buyer would really be getting a free X5M when considering the Upgrades alone have cost more than what I am asking for it! You definitely couldn’t build it for what you can buy it for!


Btw - I never leave forums... I still like to go back to my previous haunts and check on my friends from time to time.

It has been paint corrected and then ceramic coated, so it is super slick.
My detailer used CarPros C-Quartz.
