It's low enough as it sits.... and very tasteful.
No need to go any lower IMO. |

Maybe a front spoiler/splitter would give the front a more aggressive look that you are looking for? |

haha, maybe i'm just someone who can never be happy I have considered a lip as well, but I don't think a lip works well where i live as it will only get damaged one way or another. I hate having rock chips on anything, but it's unavoidable |

^agreed!
Once I recover from the LED headlights, downpipes, rear diffuser and tailpipes I just shelled out for this month, I will pull the trigger on one myself. Hopefully before Bimmerfest East. |

Thanks for the pics. I've been thinking of getting them for the the last few months but I haven't pulled the trigger. I've been trying to find placement for a good balance between concealment and performance The ALPs seem like the best on the market.

No worries, I think my front sensors are pretty concealed with the head of the sensor just touching the back of the grill which mean you can't see them unless you really know what you are looking for, the rear is pretty visible, but I have yet to get a actual rear hit other than when testing. Know your area and there is probably a high possibility that you don't need the rears and yes it's ALP or nothing

I love your color, my prior E53 X5 was blue on tan (hated the tan), but now I'm white on Sakhir Orange. I had some questions for ya though:
- when you wrapped the front grills, did the film get wrapped around the backside as well or cut flush? - how are you liking your Blackvue? I saw you kept mentioning the speed was off, but why? I recently watched a YouTube video testing dashcams and I remember seeing yours mentioned. $300 isn't bad but I'm still looking for a better deal unless you'd recommend this over any other setup.
