First Post and First Attempt

The other day while I was off work I decided to detail the X for the first real time. Let me know what you think.

And any suggestions to what my first mod should be? Do they make performance chips for e70 (not 3.0D)

Looks like you got the grill guard but not the under ride protection. I really think it's a package deal and looks better that way.

Looks like a detailed E70

. Nice job. I think first mod is to get rid of the amber side marker reflectors

. Sorry but i'm not feelin' the bull bar. But what only matters is what you like.

What type of paint do you use to paint the amber marker? How did you remove them?

Just buy them and install them yourself.

Well being from New York and commuting to the Queens and Manhattan, I think I would like to keep my frontend in one piece haha. Ill show you a rear pic of the X, it has some marks from peoples licenses plates being rubbed. Goes with the territory
