And there's without roof racks:


I like it more... it looks more sporty without em to me tho

Perfect photoshop.

I agree without the roof racks it looks way more sporty. Much better.

They look like towel bars.

I've seen those on ads for the X5M and love them. Your X5 looks awesome!

I like the sport roof racks that are flush. The standard roof racks leave a gap where it is a pain to get the snow off and the rain still drips all over you when you open the door and onto your seat when getting in. The sport roof racks don't have the same issue.

Does anyone know if the sport roof rails (ones that fit flush) use the same mounting points as the regular ones ?

Daripper. Your car looks SWEET!!!! The wheels look nice. Looks easier to clean than the 214's.

Completely agree. The standard roof rack gap make it hard to clean the car too! Getting that towel in there or waxing is a pain!

I was curious on doing that as well. I prefer the streamlined look of the sport rails plus they are brushed aluminum vs black. I'm thinking the cost might be higher than the standard black ones, as for mounting points I'd assume they are the same.
