Necro thread bump. Last post in this thread was 10 years ago.

And, as an aero kit conversion X5 owner, I can tell you, the front OE bumper gaps are VERY hard to achieve. I still have not managed it. Got the rear lined up nicely with some bracket mods, but the front is about double the OE gap. And that's not uncommon. Like that on nearly every single aero kit X5 I see photos of.

It bothers my OCD everytime I see it, but the rest of the truck looks so good it makes up for it.

The most photos of the AERO KITS you see online, came from molds. Which are basically hand made sad parodies of the aero kit.

Yours looks amazing in the red. Some 22" AC SCHNITZER wheels on that red X would look here just as Shiny bold haircut on Bruce Willis PERFECTION.

I am lucky enough to own a black E53!!! So even with my perfectionism, GAPS are going to be black on black... INVISIBLE!!! yet For tthe front bumper I might be doing fender custom molds since the 4.8 look is somewhat more relief and sporty outlined.

The AERO KITS installed on from the factory are although ON POINT
