I like it. Adds some interest to the lower part of the vehicle. I just blasted the new Mercedes ML (Jeep Grand Cherokee/Dodge Durango) because they used CHROME for all the lower bits.....WAY too much.

same feeling. The rear is way too busy. I do like the front though. Not necessary, but still nice.

Wheels are just ok... I would rather have the 336 style - looks great in person.

I guess you're going to hate my new X5 then. I am not of the M Kit and absolutely LOVE the new aero kit. Ordered a 2012 5.0 AW Loaded with this kit. Originally had it built with the Aero Kit, but wasn't a fan of how it looked. I think the new Aero Kit gives it such a beefier look -- afterall, it is an SUV. And as you know, I have the other car for my true driving pleasure. I need to decide what color I want to PC the wheels now. Hope you're well!

^ hey Calton - grats on a new one - once you get it drive it over here and we'll get side by side pics! I live behind the library now. I'm sure it will look awesome in person.

BTW, ferric gray is my personal fav wheel color. I may do that when/if I switch to 336s.

For the price, especially, I don't love it at all.

To each their own, I guess.
I'm with you, it looks like an afterthought...

Doesn't blend with the vehicle. Sorry, not feeling it.

I'd consider just doing the front end of the vehicle, without the rear. As for the sides, I have the running boards instead.

I pick her up tomorrow. But you're going to have to wait until she comes back from the body shop (she's heading there on Monday morning for a week or so). Let's connect in a few weeks when I get her back.
