VERY cool, a lot of the X's people post about are the black, silver etc, nice to see an awesome modded white one, love the 4.6 body parts and the paint scheme. While I prefer matte black on everything, yours looks fantastic. Wish my wife would go for something similar, but seeing as it's her car and not mine, she only let me do minor things to ours (style 87 rims). Would love to paint our rims and maybe get a black grill. I also got carbon wheel center caps and will probably do the hood/trunk/steering wheel as well to get rid of the blue. We have a tan interior as well, so it's tough doing some of the mods with our combo. I wanted to try the gauge rings and faces, but will probably only do the rings in a titanium. Great X you've got there though!

Digg the roof paint. Had that on my Honda a couple years back.

I'm partial on the door jambs. I see the scheme you were trying to achieve, I guess i'm just too used to the typical style of jams matching the exterior color.

The color scheme was all chosen by Garage Inc. The former color of my car is in my avatar, Titanium Silver, so it is a big change. All I told them is that I wanted a flat colored paint job. It is hard to tell from the pics, but the pearl really pops of the lines of the car when the sun hits. During a gloomy day, it is similar to Alpine white, but otherwise it is completely different.

I know it must be hard to believe, but lately I've been enjoying driving the X5 more than my C63. I guess because it is so different.

Lookin good! Any plans with the headlights?
Yeah, they went a little darker than I wanted. The headlights were re-finished and given a light tint to them also. It is hard to tell, but if you look closely, you'll notice it.

They are stock 4.4i Sport Package seats that are two-toned black and charcoal.
