I love this truck!

2010 X5M Space Gray/Piano Black. Active Autowerks Tune, Tinted Windows, Weisslicht LED Angel Eyes, LED license Plate Lights, Black Grills and Black Side LED Markers. Debadged....
(trying to decide whether or not to leave it debadged).
Already acquired H&R lowering springs, but reserving them until I get new 22" wheels.

Just bought these babies from fellow member Dperf!




BBS SV 22x10.5 front and 22x11.5 rear Titanium Gunmetal wheels with Pirelli Pzero Scorpions 295/30ZR22 front and 335/25 ZR22 rear tires

I sure hope Titanium Gunmetal will look good on Space Gray!

Yessir! Yours and Dperfs have certainly inspired mine!
...actually Blue was my first color choice, but I love Space Gray

Thank you!

Now freshly detailed with shiny new OEM brakes installed all around.

17 hours on a lift using a clay bar...

Damn, you scooped the BBS SVs? Very jealous, those will look amazing. When are you mounting them?

I certainly did!

The wheels are currently sitting at my buddy's shop along with the H&R springs. I am anxious to put everything on, but there is no way I'm getting the X out on these salted roads anytime soon!

I don't have any pictures to document the detail process, just a single video of the clay bar before and after.

Here's more lakeside shots from a few weeks ago...
(more of the same)

It's still nasty out, but this Space Gray showed up at my buddy's shop where my wheels are being stored. I thought it might be a good test to see how the Titanium Gunmetal looks next to Space Gray...

What do you guys think?

What do you guys think?

Is that photoshopped, or the SV merely leaning against the X5?
