Great way to start the day - looking at these pics and videos :thumbup:
|
Great pictures Pat, as always. I will give you a compliment to say that you do blur the line almost completely between overly modded and an OEM+ look, most will overdo it, but not in your case. Your X looks perfect as is at this point IMO.
That Estoril though :) |
Looks Geat Pat , thanks for adding me to the pics...............

Very tastefully modded, I must say..! :thumbup: |
What can one say.... an amazing looking and sounding beast! :thumbup:
:beerchug: |
Very nicely and tastefully done :thumbup:
One question, did the rims fit the same as stock before adding the spacers? Or did you have to add the spacers to the rear to achieve the stock look? |
This X5 looks like a "model". What spacers size is she wearing? :D
|
The X looks bad-ass...awesome
|
I assume you used software to lower the vehicle? I'm looking to raise my rear airbags just a weeee bit. Is it done in INPA or what other software?
|
Its done in INPA or my personal favorite to properly do it is DIS
|
RB, i was just reading of your talks about this on another thread full of goodies. many thanks

PN for your front LeMans Flares? I've scanned the threads on here countless times and my realoem research says I should have them on my 4.8is from factory - obviousy not the case. Enlighten us on those beauties!
|
I believe they arent sold anywhere here in the states anymore, alot more of them came with front flares in europe, but stateside wise and even ebay i think your SOL. I got these from a buddy who got them years ago from ecstuning as a package but they dont sell this kit anymore.
|
Oh well, if we all had flares front and rear, some of us would be asking flares delete DIY.:D Just kidding.

The complete "LeMans retrofit kit" is NLA which included all 4 arches, flares etc, but the front flares are readily available as are the rear flared arches, etc. Read this thread for all part numbers and differences if you have running boards. http://www.xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-foru...explained.html 4.6/4.8 – Front Flares ONLY (NO Running Boards). Part Number ------ Description ------------------------- QTY 51 71 7 002 953 -- BLIND RIVET ------------------------- 14 51 71 7 049 867 -- FLARED WHEEL ARCH, FRONT LEFT ------- 1 51 71 7 049 868 -- FLARED WHEEL ARCH, FRONT RIGHT ------ 1 |
Hmm^ wasnt aware that dealer had them. Has anyone actually checked to confirm or successfully ordered a set though? I remember making a few calls a long time ago here and there and ecstuning also and no one had'em.
|
Ordering a pair first of the week. Will update...

4.8isX5, I will continue to oogle at your X. Beautiful! |
You can order fronts from the dealer. I checked availability a few months ago when I quoted out RB's. Still a nice and rare mod nonetheless because few people know about them.
|
That thing looks SEXY!!

^You are right, all iS models come with flared REARS only
|
Nice ride always loved the IS look. quick question, i noticed you had your windshield replaced by safelight? have you used your rainsensor yet? Before their replaced mine even with the giant cracked windshield i had no problems, Afterward I have no automatic lights nor do i have the rainsensor and they ordered a new sensor but i noticed the sensor mount has bubbles in the glue now and even with the new sensor it does not initialize .....frustrating :(
