Welcome. I don't know about a bodykit, per se, but fender flares are a fairly common body upgrade. That said, I think they only look good with wider tires. Black window trim is also preferable in my opinion.

Congrats on the purchase. Fortunately it doesn't take too much to make the X5 look even better. Here's what I'd look into:

- BMW Performance Front Grills
- Ind Painted Reflectors
- Sport Fender Flares
- 20" Wheels (OEM style 214 in gunmetal gray would look great)
- Conservative Drop on Lowering Springs
- Black Window Trim

Let's be honest nothing makes quite as much sense as lowering an SUV
