I forgot to ask you. Why don't you get the aero kit instead? It looks better and neither of them are really functional items...

well, i considered that too but long time ago. the 4.6is kit cost around $700 and geting it painted is about $300, so its a $1k mod. i dont drive my x that often anymore since i mostly spend on modding the 530i. for $150 and $50 paint, i think its nice to have something new on the x but not too expensive. i already spent a lot on the x 2 years ago. thanks anyway.

Red all the way, it just seems more natural.

Could I fit this skid plate on a 4.6?

I'd say go with red - i was actually trying to buy the red on tan combo when I went looking for my X... funny cuz silver wasnt an option.. but i love my titanium X..

I think the 4.6 kit will be my very last mod to my X.. it is a high price tag mod..

red looks good. i was wondering where did you find a skid plate like that other than the dealership? I really think the dealership parts are way overpriced.
