I'd like to get one for my m850i GC but worried it will look funky on white without some side skirts. The front end is really long and needs some height though.

Had this thought as well so going to go ahead and order the side skirts. Waiting until Black Friday, reached out to them to see if they were going to do any deals and they confirmed they were so we'll see.

Love the wheels!

The H&R springs I had caused a terrible ride, I'd recommend the KW HAS set—that's what I have now.

Oh no!! Wish I knew this prior to ordering the H&R’s. Will talk to installer tomorrow morning(he made the recommendation) and see what he will do if the ride is bad. If he can’t exchange them after the install, will tell him to send them back and order the KW’s.
Thanks limeypride

Went to the farmers market, parked by this well cared for M6.

The wife's X5 M50i is now complete with Xpel Stealth over Dravit Gray, tints, ceramic coating and spacers front and back. The M8 also has Xpel Stealth over Bluestone Metallic—what a pair! I genuinely love driving her X5–it's so powerful and somehow makes it so easy to use the power. It's got one helluva road presence, too.

What an amazing combo!
Congrats on the mods now they look like siblings
I hate to say that but i think the X5 is more enjoyable to drive then the M8

I love the new gen. X5, your wife's looks great too. There's an AW one in my neighborhood and I stare at it every time I walk by with the pup.

I wasn't a fan of the Barcelona Blue, but after having it for a bit, it's growing on me. It has a really brilliant metallic, and I love how it can go from almost greyish-silver in some light conditions to quite blue in others.

snareman · 11-14-2021, 11:16 PM

Fixed.

Nice wheels! Have you thought about replacing the cerium parts with black shadowline to compliment them?

Mr White (sorry I could not resist given the blue car), I can report similar feelings. My favourite look is when the car is wet from the rain and parked in the garage. It seems to take on much more metallic look. Compared with a more milky look when dry in the sun.

Already on order. CF front grill, black shadowline side vents, black rear exhaust trim, and CF trim for steering wheel.

Stock wheels will be for winters. Getting something nicer/wider for summer.

To my surprise there was a $7 day pass per vehicle entry into the park but that's the best $7 I've spent in a long time.

One thing I absolutely love about the Tanzanite Blue is its chameleon aspects, e.g., the rear-end shot with the sun coming from the left side doesn't bring out the shimmering blue but rather makes the car look nearly black.

what trunk spoiler do u have? Did you have to order and add yourself? Part number? Thanks
