Some love for the XLine!
We've had our xDr35i since 2018 and have kept it bone stock. After treating us so well for 90k+ miles now, we decided it was time for some simple mods.
First was an aero kit (front lip + rear diffuser): Rear diffuser looked empty without MPE... Clearly can't figure out how to post photos with the right orientation, hopefully next time. That's all the mods for now, thought I'd share! |

Awesome! In the cabin, it's very slightly louder than stock I'd say. Sounds like the original muffler when the valves are open, like on a cold start. Outside, it's noticeably louder, but nothing that would cause any unwanted attention. The YouTube clips I watched before buying it made me think it would be too loud, but not the case. I recommend it if you want a little bit more sound, but whether it's worth the $1k is up to you!

However, I did it by removing the first few rivets from the fender liner and the lower mud guard-type plastic on each side to get the lower section off. I think it took me 1.5 hours or so playing around with it - wish I made a write up! |

Hi, do you still have the stock lip by any chance? My wife ran over a curb and its split in half. Or by any chance does anyone know the part number for the xline front lip, I cant find it anywhere.

I have original lip and center insert in the imperial blue metallic color, but I am in California. Part number is 51117397413, but you should verify it on realoem.
