I have the M Performance key fob cover and the bottom of the key for goes in first.(thus covering it) It never occurred to me that the leather key fob cover goes in the other way and allows access to the bottom of the key fob. |

Does anyone know if we can buy the detachable plastic cover in glossy black for the key fob? (Similar to that of the XM). Much nicer than the silver imo

Proposed Mods for my U11— Thoughts?
Hey All, I took possession of my X1 (photos attached) on Jan 1st after a 4-month wait and feel like mine is the only one in Pennsylvania—-certainly a scarce vehicle. Not sure if it’s the supply chain or that X1 is a ‘niche’ model (IMO). In any event, it checks all the boxes for me-local ‘grocery getter’, 3k miles a year. It also has nearly as much cabin room as my wife’s X3! In any event, I went with the Black Sapphire Metallic M Sport but kept the grille silver. I will be wrapping the grille in gloss black next week (OEM costs $450, hard to find and it’s another $400+ for labor to remove the bumper!)—I honestly thought I would like having a little contrast with the grille, but the wheel contrast is enough for me.
To my questions: Should I swap out from the 18’ Msport wheels to 20s or 21s? Should I paint the calipers? Other suggestions? I love this vehicle, but I feel it needs some finishing touches! Hope everyone is enjoying their U11! |

A minor gripe but I’ve found that the door pockets are not lined with result that anything hard tends to rattle.
Ebay sells inserts for the previous model F48 (not sure if these would fit) but has anybody found aftermarket rubber inserts for the latest U11? |

Bought this key cover today from Amazon. Feels good, looks good, and does not attract fingerprints!

Was a bit nervous about dropping the key fob so bought a few of these on Ali Express. Came this morning… very impressed! Feels solid, comes with screw kit etc and importantly, a proper key attachment 😄
