Lumma Design bodykit
How is it? And how much will it cost you to do just body kits (front, side skirts and back bumper). Can you do it without the changing your exhaust since I notice that the valance is cut with a diff specs from mine current exhaust. Also, been getting very poor petrol consumption. 6.0-6.5km/litre. Is that normal? Thks for the patience and would welcome any suggestions or help. |

Full Lumma kit is around $19000 USD (I believe).

Stop. Just stop. Invest your money, or blow some of it on a nice vacation overseas.
Spending $34k on cosmetics for a 3.0l X5 is flat-out retarded. I don't mean to be a dick by saying that, either; 10 years from now you'll look back and agree. The only question is whether you'll have gone ahead with it anyway... It'd be one thing if you had ridiculous cashflow, but you don't. You're planning this out piece by piece, and by the time you're done, the car will be 'the old body style' anyway, and you'll have not only lost $43k, but depreciated your perfectly-good 3.0l X5 even further. Seriously. Give your alternatives a little more thought... Nobody envies a guy with a flashy 'kustom' car with a little motor, anyway. (I like the look of this one... but definitely not for the money, and without V8 pipes it's like McLovin's voice coming from a pimp). ![]() |

$43k plus paint and labor? You'd have to be a trust fund millionaire with a terminal illness to justify that sort of coin on any car as mediocre as a 3.0 X5.
Not to mention how tacky it would be to drive around in something like that.

Spending $73k to pimp out a heavy car with a base model engine that's worth maybe $35-40k is the road-going corollary to a fat man in a little jacket. It just is.
