Can't decide if I want to:

Keep the M Sport bumpers and rock a RWC 3d style lip all around

or

Swap for F85 bumpers with a lip all around and have ///d emblems made lol

I put the M Performance CF lower diffuser and the M50d front grill insert. I think both would look nicer on a white car. Just FYI.

I like how the diffuser looks and the fit is perfect. Several people have said it makes the front look much nicer.

I do really like the F85 front and rear bumpers. Probably my favorites for any X5 model.

Identical to what I have, best of luck with the installation. One thing I've noticed is that when I put it in reverse the camera doesn't pop up unless I hold the menu button down and back out of CarPlay. Might be something I can change in the settings.

Yea, from videos I've seen your camera should act as normal. There are a few settings in there around the camera from what I'm seeing in the instructions. Will let you know how mine works. Install looks pretty easy but I do a lot of DIY.

Happy Friday!

Took some shots of my basically bone stock X5 last night, what do you all think?

Does anybody in the Milwaukee area have a more photogenic X5/6 (any BMW)? I'd like to do some more of this.

Sorry for the gigantic post...

Former pro photographer here and since you asked for opinion - here we go.

Shots 1 and 5 are OK, framing and colors are nice. Not sure about the rest.

Good start, keep them coming! Don't worry about the more photogenic cars, your is nice enough.

Nice garage... I need to get some SwissTrax or RaceDeck.

Looking clean. I've got a Alpine White X5, but currently have a X3 loaners that is black sapphire metallic. Black always looks so good when clean.

Yes it does, indeed. For about 2,57 nanoseconds. Then it's dirty again.

(Black cars here for about 8 years)

Exactly why I wont go back to a dark color vehicle. I had a Monaco Blue E90 and it was impossible to keep clean looking, especially in MN. But light colors just don't get that depth and shine like dark colors do.

What wheels are these rf17? Is there any chance you can take a picture to show off the concave on the rear wheels?

Very nice wheels indeed, but with those wheels your brakes look like you'd nick them from the bicycle…

Which front splitter is that?. Looks much better than the BMW option. I like Maxton also, but they don't seem to have any stock.
