Painted my 214's Black ..

I thought I would toughen up my ride as I was getting sick of it looking like other X5's on the road. Painting the 214's black has made a real difference. I matched them to a similar finish that the roof racks have. The painter told me it's 3% satin if that means anything to anyone

What do you all think ?

Looks like a pearl white--must be custom.

Thanks all for the comments .. My goal was to make it look tough rather than a family car.

Colour is Moonstone (Individual). Moonstone is awesome in sunlight as its slightly metallic and different hues come out in different lighting conditions, but can look like undercoat on a cloudy day (See attached picture)

Mods are:-

- Lowered using H&R 2.00"(F) & 1.20"(R)
- 30mm H&R Spacers all round
- Colour Coded almost everything
- Black Mesh & Black Kidney Grills
- Tinted Windows (30%)
- Painted 214's

Am thinking about tinting back lights or buying some of the LED ones Iv seen kicking around on eBay.

That's about it really.

Thanks for looking !!
