Not my car, but exactly what it will look like. I will get my X done from the same company. I will order the Matte Vinyl from them tomorrow, and I will get the entire windshield tinted chrome/gray as well as the other windows

Thanks

It is a local company in Dubai, Foil a Car, which is a German company. They have many pictures of different cars up on their website. They have Matte Vinyl in pretty much every color.

Here are some more pictures of the matte gray X5 as well as a few different colors including matte black.

It does not say anywhere on the site about price. How much does this cost? Also I see they are located in Dubai, what if you live in the states or Canada?

I went to the company today, and was quoted 2 options:
1. 27,000 DHS which is 7,400 USD. They will put a layer of any color (excluding black, white, gold, and chrome) and then put a layer of matte vinyl over it.
2. For 17,000 Dhs which is about 4,600 USD. They will put a layer of matte vinyl directly over your current car paint to make it matte.
3. I did not find the price, but for black and white, they have a single layer vinyl already made. This will be around 22,000-26,000 (My Guess)
ALL THE PRICES ARE FOR THE ENTIRE 07+ E70 X5

As for an installer in the US, some specialty shops should have them, but I am unsure. The company here specializes in this and has done many many high end and standard cars.

I was just at a local tuning shop and saw them putting on a matte black vinyl on this GT3. I think its gonna look awesome.

I have not done it yet, but am going to go tomorrow to see samples in person and possibly close the deal. I am trying to decide whether to go with matte vinyl from foil-a-car, or have AGMC make me some custom matte paint. I will decide by tomorrow, hopefully.
Gold, silver, or anything shiny is a trend in the UAE. I might get some gray tint which has the chrome-ish look on my X from solargaurd.
