my new E53

I just bought a 2004 X5 4.4

So far ive carbon vinyled the pillars, will carbon the chrome trim. I bought rear adjustable end links for future lowering. I installed a magnaflow X pipe. Im looking for more fun things to do.

Ive been looking around for some headlights to replace the ugly ones that come stock with the orange corners. I HATE that. Anyone have any ideas? And no I dont want to spend 1500 on lights. Can I open them up and make that disappear? Also, is there any way to turn those off when you switch the light switch one click over to active JUST the angel eyes?

What about interior LED lights? Anyone sell a good complete kit?

Any other suggestions are appreciated

Mate there are LOADS of threads on everything you asked on here, just have a search for the following;

H & R springs
Eibach springs
Depo headlights
How to bake headlights

Hope that helps and welcome.

Milsy,

Depo headlights are only for pre facelift models. And to bake the facelifted headlights is quite a chore. I think mrbmwx5 put them in the oven at 400 for 20 minutes..
