Decorative skid plate question
Just a quick question regarding the decorative skid plate. How does it come where it requires painting? I figured it came painted silver. Thanks.

Also,anybody can show me a dealer of front skid plate and hood protector that can ship internationally, like in Asia? Of course with same price as that from dealerlift.com. Thanks

I don't think any dealership in US would ship parts overseas. They probably don't have export license to do that. Maybe some online non dealership stores can do it but I think they will probably charge a lot in shipping. Try to find some friend here to buy those and ship them to you.

If I remember correctly it was just grey plastic.

So I guess silver is typically what you guys are getting them painted. I'm wondering if I should do alpine white on our white X5.
