Wow!!!!Nice improve!!!
I have a question on the vinyl trim and side skirts, is the wrap gonna stay properly? I heard from one of my friend say that the wrap is not gonna stay on the surface like the side skirt or the trim. Dunno how you get it stay on there?? |

Nice upgrades. I'm planning on pretty much the same for my titanium silver 2013 X6 3.5. Ordered the carbon fiber rear view mirror covers, carbon eyelids and rear carbon lip spoiler.
I'll post pics after install. It's costing me about the same Great job |

Your car looks very nice. Really dig the "panda" color scheme.
The only other thing that I would mention, not sure if you have thought about this yet, is to wrap your roof with black vinyl. I think this will really pull everything together. Great job and thanks for sharing! |

Love it, I was picturing doing something like this to my X6 as well also white. Went to the body shop to get an estimate to get them painted today. Then, I came on the boards and saw this (my dream come true) now I'm definitely doing it, it looks sick! I like how you painted the silver fog light trim in black, I was thinking doing it white but the black looks much better. Thanks for the idea.

Thank you guys but I no longer own this car. I drive a 2011 E93 M3 now.
askylitdrive - Thanks for bumping my old thread lol. The fog lamps were wrapped with smoke film by me. badblkX6 - Thanks man. Vinyl wrapping the roof was actually on my mod list but a friend talked me out of it lol.. btw, i love your black x6! Nice list of mods. I bought the LUX V4 lights for my M3 too. RedG - Thanks for the kind words. Go for it! Get those black trim parts painted. Don't forget to post pics of the finish product Thanks again |

lol at your mileage comment. I knew it was going to be bad on my 50 but not this bad. I'm averaging just over 13 with 95% city - it's straight awful. However, glad I didn't go with a 35 thinking I was going to get exponentially better mileage!
