Freed up the X from a fallen garage roof panel. Would have been two weeks next Saturday but now that I have a new panel to pickup at hardware store tomorrow I had to clear the area. There is very light scratches on the X roof but that should buff out easy.

andrewwynn will become famous soon enough
Design calls for screw every eight inches. Doesn't look close. I'm curious also what was the cause.

Black. But I'm a little biased. The wife has those BMW black ones on hers and she LOVES them. Sets off the vehicle nicely and is a quality frame. $35 quality even.

I keep debating whether to get the black BMW ones you have pictured or the black Dinan slimline frames. Currently rocking generic slimline black frames that have faded.

Where can I get DINAN ones? I got a few off a guy I knew who sold his BMW. I got 2 chrome ones I put on my dads 2013 X6 3.5, this black one, a carbon fiber one and another black one that is peeling for a whopping $15 he even threw in a random NEW BMW center cap haha...

^Nice deal. Those buggers aren't cheap.

You can get Dinan ones direct from them. Nobody sells them cheaper (that I've found). Part number for the slimlines is D010-0018 and they run $40/ea.
