It's an extra performance X5M, can't you see the tri-color grille?
The hood adds 25hp. The idiot BMW designers did not think to put the openings in the hood to let the engine breathe.

Edit: tri-color under rear passenger door. Boom! 5hp.

Do you think the tricolor mod will work for my Ferrari? It's fast but I feel it needs a little more oomph.

I didn't mean any disrespect with my post I've never seen this particular hood before. The modds you currently have are too aggressive with your current wheels. A more aggressive set of wheels is all this car needs to be one of my favorite M sports.

The hood, tri-color grille, tri-color door steps may impress someone on 3series forum, but e70 forum is mostly mature folk who appreciate genuine things in life. I see your x5 got big fat breaks to compliment large wheels. That's respectable - real function and good looks. But the //m coloring, the bulged hood, the holes, etc just make the fine vehicle start looking cheap.

Some of this comments are just stupid...OP personally I don't like the hood with those grills but as long as you do is all it matters. As far as the colors they look good man.

Seriously, whats up with the snooty owners here. At least half probably bought used, and act like they are driving a brand new Ferrari...except for you ART-qitec .

The guy is excited about his modifications.

You can have an opinion, but why be so snobby about it.

OP's friends don't have balls to tell him to stop the tacky mods. Someone has to tell. Else, the fine vehicle ends up like this. Note tri-colors.
