Roof Rails or no Rails on ///M
Hey bro's
Just pulled my headliner down to add the flush gloss black roof rails on my ///M Now I'm second guessing this whole rail business You owners with rails - like em or would you rather not have them? Owners without rails? Want them or no? Responses appreciated

Any photos? I have the silver rails on my X5 35i, and I wish they were black. It's just not worth the hassle for me to change them because I'll never use them. |

I went without the rails. The idea of carry cargo on top of an M Was a non-starter for me and liked the look better as seems more sportier. Picture attached.

Hey Northern, are you in Calgary? Do you want to get together some evening I would love to see what you have done with your ///M I just picked up an alpine white. I have an Eisenmann exhaust and I will put the my HREs on it next summer after I burn the tires off the OEM wheels. I am also planning possibly down pipes and a tune from ECUProgrammer in Calgary.

Currently getting hood fitment, and wiring up the retrofit wiring harness and vent mounted digital display. Then headlamp install and roof rails (maybe) I'll send you a pm when completed!
