BMW X5 Black Vermillion
I know a lot of people aren't a fan of this edition, but this is my first BMW and I am in love with the car! Glad to be a part of this community! Any suggestions on what to do with my new ride?

Congrats on an awesome and unique ride! If it were me, I'd protect that frozen paint with a full matte PPF, swap out the front reflectors for matching painted ones or attempt to match the paint by wrapping them, and I'd tone down the red grille with a smoked wrap as well. Darkening that red grille would look awesome IMO.

Congrats. The red grill is the most polarizing aspect; switch it to carbon fiber to have a bit of contrast to go with the matte paint. Interior accents are nice. They should have offered this in an M50i as well.

Congrats on the new ride and enjoy. I would do the following to finish it off
1. Grill swap for black slats 2. Painted reflectors front and rear 3. Debadge 4. Tint 5. MSS or H&R springs 6. H&R spacers It's def a cool canvas to start modding. Congrats again on the new ride.

In addition to the other recommended mods, Get a set of the Black Carbon Fiber roundels badges to replace the blue/white ones. I’d also change to black & white wheel center caps.
Here are the CF badges: |
