I love the stripes. I’m thinking of changing my blue ones out with matte white kind of like yours.

What box is that? I need to replace my current Thule box with something a little more efficient for the winter tasks of carrying skis and snowboards. Didn't make a difference on the X5, but the MY, its like almost 20% it on range with a big box.

It’s an Inno Wedge 660 which I got from etrailer.com. Honestly hasn’t impacted fuel economy much at all.

That is a good point. I had coded the colors using BimmerCode and then had the dealer upgrade my trip to the M Performance carbon fiber. As a result something happened to the ambient lights and they were really dim…the dealer replaced them under warranty and for some reason now, when I crank up the brightness they are both brighter and more saturated. Not sure if it is because they are new!

People always comment when they are in the car as well since you can see them even when it isn’t fully dark…not complaining.

I also had my HUD replaced under my extended wrap warranty and it went from a little fuzzy to very sharp. 😊

So what did the coding entail with respect to the install? Did you do it yourself and have a DIY? I really like the look...
