That's a mega job. Great choice! Love how you can see just a hint of that gold tinge

I would love to get mine wrapped in frozen white with blackout trim.

My go to wrap company hooks me up as I've gotten 5 cars wrapped so far.
cost me 2400 to wrap the X5 main panels, 300 to wrap satin/chrome trim.

Couple of pics from last night, one thing I love about gray cars is how clean they still look even when they're not







Took a couple of my friend's S5

Summer of long road trips addressed - wash, clay (used the "clay block", better than the blue putty stuff), Blacklight, Butter Wet Wax. Even addressed the chrome tips.

Our new X5 xDrive50i was delivered on Friday. We are really liking it so far.
Here are a few quick snaps I took today. I'll try to get in a real photoshoot of it some time soon:





Jlu88 - Nice shots! I've known the owner of the S5 for years. I'd recognize that plate anywhere!

Wow, nice! I'm really liking the black 469s. Makes me almost ready to pull the trigger on powder coating mine

I was so dead set against the black wheels. I have never liked them on any car.

Then, my salesperson located this car that was already in production and it fit pretty much everything else in our ideal build. My wife liked the black wheels, so I went along with it.

They are definitely growing on me! I think they are particularly well suited to this build, I think. I'm not going to say I'm a convert yet... but I may be getting there.

I'd happily trade you for their non-black counterparts!

Thanks. 7 1/2 hr job - I think twice a year for that level may be about right
