Thanks. The main piece and lower piece were wrapped separately so if I want that lower piece exposed I could just have the vinyl removed.

Maybe the pic does injustice to it.

You're right the pics don't do it justice. I took several pics to get the exposure right and even edited the photo. I should've turned the car around to take these pics.

Also suggest blacking out the reflector lights

Gotta get my diffuser painted or wrapped or whatever, it distracts from the sexy booty on the X6

Do it. I have no idea why BMW painted the diffuser smoke grey instead of black.

Did you have to remove them from the car to be wrapped?

Nope. The tips had to be cut off to be powder coated though.

Just changed the chrome grill out. Just love black grills on these trucks. Bottom Pic right b4 I changed the chrome grill.
Side note: I plastidipped this one glossy black and im getting the chrome one painted by my friend glossy black instead of buying a new one. (Then I would have 3)
