New Kid on the Block
 

Hey x5world I finally decided to join I have a 2003 X5 4.6is and I love it. I've been lurking on here a while stealing valuable information and doing minor upgrades to the truck with the stuff I learned on here. You guys are great, a wealth of information in this forum. So anyway some of the mods I've done so far; upgraded the NAV, painted my calipers, and tinted my tail lights. I'm currently installing 2 9" headrests monitors I took out of my Audi A8 and removing all the trim and center console so I can paint it. I've taken many pictures of my interior dismantled and will post some tonite and the rest sometime tomorrow to help with some of the tutorials on here. Anyway rambled enough enjoy the pics:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Welcome to X5World! Nice ride.

:xoutpost:

Welcome Aboard, it's nice to see another Chicagoan member!!

Great looking imola x5! Now it's time for performance mods(CAI and exhaust upgrade) =).

nice lookin X5!! :xoutpost:

How did you paint the calipers? nice headrests.. lookin good!!

Oh, only 1 thing wrong, the Dallas signature. GO GIANTS!!!

I stay in Hyde Park now.

Autozone has all colors of caliper paint available that withstands heat up to 500 degrees. Get a can of that and a can of clearcoat spray paint from autozone as well, follow the caliper removal tutorial and you're good to go. I did mine in the summer so it dried pretty quick but it still took me all day to finish between painting and beer breaks:thumbup:

nice!!! Sounds like a summer job!!

A bit ghetto.....

btw, is your plan to paint your titanium trim red?
