Cool Orange plastidip temptation

Since my interior lights are orange, I'm thinking to plastidip the kidneys and X5, 3.0 orange. If I do it, I'll also change the blue on the emblem to orange as well. I've always like orange and black, so the temptation is strong...

Um... I wouldn't do that man. It's gonna end up looking like one of those goofy ricer/drift wanna-bes with the bright colored parts all over the car. Keep the orange to the interior lighting.

That's just my opinion though, it's your ride so do whatever makes you happy in the end.

My wife had a similar opinion. I'll fight the temptation

Camo plasti dip the body, then do orange trim. Youll have the first redneck x5 on the forum.

Plastidip the whole car orange with no gloss and do your badges in gloss black. That would look pretty sweet IMHO and your still keeping your black and orange theme.

It's gloss orange, but I guess it would look something like this...
http://colourmycar.net/gallery/bmw/x...d-gloss-orange

...Not quite as bad as I thought, I'll admit. Although the only model that could pull it off IMO would be a 4.8is since it has the cojones to back up such a ridiculous color.

Orange and black fight fight
who fight we fight
Orange and black fight fight

I say if that is what you like, don't ask for input, do it!!
With plastidip you can always take it off.
Would like to see how it looks.
