Since his X5 is the same color as mine I just want more pics period. LOL Good looking ride for sure.

I added these to cover scuffs and scratches that the POs bedazzled shoes put in the sills.

Is that bike rack screwed into the tow strap fitting?

Love them!
What are they called and where can I throw money to get them?

Also, picked up new jack to go with the aluminum jack pad (didn't want to go the hockey puck route) and two new jack plugs. It's not the fanciest floor jack in the world, but works great on the X5 and was on sale.

I put on new wheel locks from BMW. I came out of the grocery store and saw some hoods about to try to steal my wheels!!! They saw me coming and took off. Going to put them on the rest of my trucks now. I HATE thieves!!!

Got the same jack from Harbor Freight for $59!

The quality seems good (from China), they are aluminum with 2 sided tape already installed. Worth $90? I guess that up to the individual. My wife loves them.

The wife and I installed a MEWANT steering wheel cover. Took about 4 hours from start to finish (stitching is a slow process). Props to the wife for busting out her cross stitch skillz. LOL
