What's the matter with the tail lights? What I was trying to accomplish was putting the dvd player in the center console and hookup wireless headphones. I removed the center console because it was easier that way the last picture is of my interior intact I reassembled everything and no wires are visible and everything is working.

Just my opinion, but the OEM sport package tail lights look classier. The dark blacked out look doesn't really suit the X. It is more suited for a lowered Honda or something.

Also, why take off the side 4.6 badges? I would have left those on. I know it is not right to assume, but everytime I see a debadged BMW I always think that the owner is trying to make the car seem like it is more than what it really is. I would let those 4.6 badges fly with pride.

Hmmm, need to be positive. I like the wheels.

Taillights look like you painted them. If you use flat black it would look better. Original would be even better than that.

Are those the wires for the headrests visible from the back seat, running from the console to the seats? Can't they go under the carpet?

Again, I like the wheels.

I like the rims too! Looks like you need to rotate those tires.

I think that's a record.

Most pics in one thread. Ever.
