all moved into new house. enjoying it. X5 project obviously has put on the back burner. May not complete and may simply wait for new model design (guessing it will be by 2014) and simply get that. I may just bypass the actual kit and get the shoes ($13K Hamann concaves) and be done with this. House needs my $$$ attention.

I'll still slap on the bonnet, match the bonnet vent to the grill/window trim, white fog lights, body color the door guards, black out the calipers and drums. I may simply settle for body coloring the bumpers instead of getting the kit. This is easy stuff. The only things I'm missing are the "shoes" (wheels) and kit, but the kit is about $18K and the shoes are $13K. Buying and furnishing a new home was not part of my plans when i started this project, so I may stop at the wheels. Eveyone says that once I slap some wheels on it, it'll look really good anyway. I dunno. Just financially strapped now after purchasing this house/furniture/moving costs/closing costs/etc. Plus, now wifey is having major problems with her Lincoln. Only good thing with this is, I'm trying to convince her to come the Bimmer way. lol She's so sent on an Audi though.
