Looking to do some upgrades!!

I have an 06 X5 4.4i and I am looking to upgrade and customize it a little. It is a sport package with NAV. I have googled after market parts and upgrades but haven't really found anything that is good quality. Im wanting to change anything that will make a good difference. I want to start out doing the least expensive things first but any ideas anyone has would be much appreciated.

All done with plastic dip bought at Lowe's $7.80 used about 1/3 of the can.

Check out some 4.8 tips, thats always a good way to beef up the look of the rear.
Even little things like LED's in the corners and license plate bulbs can make it visually distinct from other X's on the road at night. The LED tails aren't expensive either....

what color is your X? you can black out things using Plasti-Dip - if you like it, you keep it, if you don't like it, you peel it off...

Thank you all for the replies. Mine is gray. I wish it was black the black ones look a lot nicer I think. How do I insert a pic that is on my comp and does not have a URL?

go advanced, manage attachments... they have to no bigger than certain size - if it is too big, it will tell you...

looks nice... not sure if blacking out will bring out a character... on the other hand, i think one of the members here has this combo... let me find his screen name...
