BBQ, X5 Mods, and a M3!

Got together with some good friends yesterday for a BBQ and we did some modding on our X5's and M3

Here are some iPhone pictures I'd like to share. Enjoy!











Mods begin!

aw305 Plasti-dipping my front reflectors.











twelve535i added the iND X5 emblem and removed his xDrive badge







Working on the M3.. Carbon Fiber diffuser, Black gloss exhaust tips, iND front reflectors, and front pin striping.

geroz1 Trunk full of M3 mods!













Alan l. working on the pin stripes!

Nice photos! Good to see a side by side comparison of front lip vs. no fromt lip. Nice garage also. RaceDeck flooring?

Just wanted to let you know that your first pic made me make up my mind whether to go single slat or dual slat grille. Appreciate it, as I had not seen them side by side yet.

For me, the OEM Performance (single slat) grill looks best. Makes the front end look a bit wider. I'll be ordering that one!

Just go to paintscratch.com and order the correct spray paint color. All depends on your DIY level but shouldn't be hard if you have some experience with a rattle can.

Just so you know, we didn't spray paint my reflector.. it was plasti-dip so it isn't permanent.
