Love everthing about your X!! Some people go for a certain look and just can't achieve it--you are not one of those people. Nice X
I like your wheels, by the way

I too am curious, how'd you accomplish the black look on the running boards? are they OEM turned black somehow?

Hey Tambalolo-dbag you obviously dont have an appreciation for tasteful modification, such as that displayed by the OP. And as far as how he got his X--who cares! If he is a rich kid with a "sickeningly" rich family, more power to him--nothing wrong there. Sounds like you wish you could put money into an X and make it look as good as this. We all know this wont happen since you think the wheels are ugly . Anyway, might be time for you to find a site where they do tasteful modifications

I have a friend who is a 26 years old self made millionair, I think he is capable of earning a BMW.. Its a BMW not a Bentley!

so again the drl's are part of the highbeam bulb , so when i changed it to an aftermarket bulb it KILLED them !!

the stock bulb is a high beam and drl !! the aftermarket one is only a high beam !!

TaMbALoLoNg is an unknown quantity at this point
How can you even consider those wheels to look nice? You're ruining the BMW name by driving around what's suppose to be a luxurious and elegant. But then again your probably young and didn't earn your BMW and someone just handed it over.

Wow wow wow easy guy, we are not here to judge each other, remember we come for the information but stay for the friendship.

Thats a very strong statement, we should all try to enjoy ourselves, and not try to put a hand in each others pockets see what we have in there.

And let me guess, you're one of the people who bought a BMW as a fashion statement, or for "luxury" and don't consider it to be a performance vehicle..
