New Member, hello!
I've been a member of Bimmerforums for ages and just decided to come over here for my E53 (their X forums are pretty quiet). I've owned my E53 for over a year now and love it. I've been tastefully customizing it a bit over time and enjoying it fully. I've owned 23 BMWs (not a misprint) and am very much an enthusiast. This is my first X5 but before it, I have owned two X3s. I guess I'll share a bit about my car too. It's a 2001 3.0, Steptronic, Titanium Silver over Black Montana Leather. It has Activity Package, Sport Package, Climate Package, Premium Package and Towing Package. Here is what I have done: EXTERIOR DeBadged the rear Replaced the '3.0' fender badges with factory E70 'XDrive' badges Powder Coated Red Brake Calipers Titanium Silver 4.8is kidney grills Chrome Exterior Door Handles Chrome Tailgate trim (the strip where the roundel is) Chrome Fog Light Bezels LED Fog Light Bulbs LED License Plate Lights Crystal Red & Clear Taillights Automatic Tailgate (opens fully when released) INTERIOR Removed the OEM Dark Poplar Wood & Replaced with Carbon Fiber Replaced OEM Wood & Leather Sport Steering Wheel with OEM Carbon & Leather M-Sport Wheel OEM Leather & Carbon Fiber Shift Knob Chrome Gauge Rings 4.8is styled Silver Gauge Faces Red Gauge Needles OEM Aux Input Kit All LED Interior Lighting Silver Finish on Power Window Switch Bezels Heated Rear Seats Aluminum Pedals Replaced OEM Sport Seats with Comfort Seats from a 4.8is IN THE FUTURE Bumpers and lighting from a facelift model (2004-2006) Factory sliding trunk floor 2004+ Cargo Cover (requires changing of sliding mechanism too) OEM Aluminum Running Boards OEM 4.8is Body Kit Thanks everyone! I'm very happy to be here, on such an active E53 Forum!!!! Last edited by Sapphirexae; 02-06-2015 at 05:14 PM.

Welcome to the forum! Glad to see you moved over to the "action". Some times it is more of a whine...

Wow, I'm not even a member more then an hour and I already hate you Stephen! A LeMans Blue 4.8is is my ultimate E53. GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!! I'll probably keep mine another year (maybe less) and get the 4.8is.

I actually only have photos of it from the day that I purchased it (over a year ago). Nothing really recent. I'll take some tomorrow and post them for y'all.
