I'm just not getting the wrapping thing that seems to be going around. Weird.

Here are all the colors offered by FoilaCar Dubai or Germany:

FoilaCar Color Samples

I have seen lots of these wraps in person, and for the interior trim my choice would be the carbon fiber or brushed aluminum (any color).
If you want to try something different, maybe white carbon fiber!?
And the 3d brushed aluminum is different from the one offered by BMW and looks nice.

Just ignore the over opinionated people, they just want to jibe to spice up their otherwise boring lives.
What's wrong with having an opinion?

He did post up his project, so with that being done on a public forum, people will have opinions and sometimes they aren't what you want to hear, but you should still respect them. Also, just because we have a different opinion from yours, doesn't mean our lives are boring either!
Had to get that off of my chest and I Apologize for the hi-jack!

Well said, and I agree. And trust me...my life is far from boring. Just because I voiced my opinion, and really dislike the white tape you put on your interior trim, does not make my life, or anyone else's boring!

Thanks for all the comments and honest opinions..like I said before I wasn't too excited when I got it done, but I figured it was worth a shot.

I'm going to leave it for another week then either just go back to the dark wood or try the black carbon fiber..I took a few better pictures today, so everyone can see the contrast and how it looks.

I'm going to have the black pieces on the door painted white, and the X5 logo painted black. I'm still in search for different exhaust tips I'll probably end up just putting the 4.8 tips on the quad are just too long, and rub against the heat shield.

your stormtrooper X5 looks fine.. as long as you dig the mods that's all that should matter.

There's a difference between voicing an opinion, providing constructive criticism and simply making a smart a$$ reply. I had to get that off my chest

To OP, I like it when you actually see the whole vehicle. Different perspective.
