Strange...That just shows how much you know. That's an OEM accessory, for real, you can even ask Osama.

Being an OEM accessory does not mean it looks nice!

I have it on for protection, it comes on or off at my discretion. Here is the USA we have freeways and most of them are very busy, something you wont have to worry about in Saudi Arabia. That's how I keep my X ding and rock chip damage-free. So before you opem you mouth Mr. khaFAGi-achaakhakhaakaahkahah know the details

Some neuter there X5's by removing the roofracks, while you've simply given it nerd glasses. Both mods are easily changed back.

Now THATS ironic

I would consider it, but I am likely to start using them this coming summer if I buy the kayaks I want... doing more outdoor stuff lately, was missing it. Even bought new mountain bikes to go riding. (went riding earlier today actually)
