Also just a little comparison between my neighbours e70

Did you transplant the emblem from your door to the rear? I like that placement much better. Similar to the G05 X5 no?

I had done that as a joke but got lazy and left it there I'm still on edge if I want to de badge the rear or black out the emblems

I was experimenting with badge locations too

The x5 badge location I would personally keep where it is factory but the rest you can do whatever u feel like. I was rock the drive 53 for a solid month and then switched to to normal

Ya I don't like the X5 in the middle I was just moving the badges around work scotch tape. I opted to keep it debadged. I do like the small badges the way you had them though.

I am contemplating doing a de badge but some part of me likes the look it has

How did you re-"stick" the badge out of curiosity? I assume 3M tape, but how did you get it to size? Use the badge as a stencil?

I used 3m double sided and cut it a little short from the actual badge size

I like it. Like I said earlier, this reminds me of the front of a Viper.

You're right it is very viper like. This was my inspiration to do it though.

You're correct. The wheels are 10.5" and the front has 15mm spacer while the rear has the 25 mm ones. The picture from this angle makes it appear more protruding in the front. I'm thinking of pushing the rear out a bit more though

Time for some maintenance. Hit 105k KM and wanted to get the front diff / rear diff / transfer case all changed out as well as the oil, cabin filters and recirculate filter. Also gave me a good reason to buy a 200c syringe for extraction and the oil filter wrench.

edit to update picture.

I was planning on doing a write up. Lots out there for the N55 for the oil change, but I'll do one for the front/rear diff and t-case. Should have it done by the end of the month hopefully.

Replaced my wood center console trim with X5M knee pads today. PITA install as many have noted, but well worth it to me.

M Performance carbon fiber interior trim set arriving next week, which will eliminate the rest of the wood on the dash & doors.

Looks great.. I think it would look better with the whole thing painted though. I wanted to do this too but the wrap I got wasn't a close enough match with the mineral white.
