Thank you very much. I don't mind at all. I got the Roundels and Wheel caps from Khoalty. I had my body shop paint the chrome circumference of each roundel, high glass black, to complete the look. Hope this helps.

You gotta have a wife that fully supports your hobbies! If my wife didnt have an interest in our cars, and/or didn't support my hobbies in general we wouldn't have lasted a week. Of course, in turn I have to support hers as well!

Kudos to you and your cool wife, C... And again... The X is looking awesome. Love the AW!

I went with Space Grey, but had a hard time deciding between it and the AW. We already have a white ride, so opted for something different.

Looks amazing. back up a little for the next pictures though! need to see all her glory at once. out of curiosity, did you ever think about doing the center grilles in black as well to match the kidneys and side grilles? That could look pretty mean as well.

Thanks man!

I actually did and was strongly considering it for this X, but decided in the end I wanted a little contrast. I might change my mind down the road and it shouldn't be that hard to do (I might even attempt it myself).

The Tune is going in, in 2 weeks (after I reach 1000 miles). I will def let you know! The best part about it is that I get the OBD plug and can swap the stock tune back onto the car whenever I want. Evolve is a huge Tuner over on M5Board and currently the Board favorite. They are a great company and their prices and services are top notch.
