A Thanks to This Forum & Some Pics After Detail
 
4 Attachment(s)
Wanted to say Thanks All! For all the information, suggestions, and help.

I have had my car for a year now, and since I stumbled upon this site this has happened.

AC style Pedals
LED License Plate Bulbs
Titanium Gauge Trim Rings Thanks to a member
X-Pipe Resonator Delete
HID Fog Lights
Set of 17" Dedicated Snows
Dice iPhone Interface
Front Skid Plate
Chrome Exhaust Tips
Dinan CAI

I still want the Dinan Software Upgrade and maybe some 214's or 215's

I just got done with a two day detail. First I clay bared, then waxed with Zymol, then did my trim with Back to Black. It was rewarding.

I really like this car.

Looks really good! I never thought of doing the stuff to my X5 til I stumbled on this site too, now I am hooked.

Nothing looks better than a clean and waxed black X, but nothing looks worse than a dirty black X. Nice Job and I know what you mean about rewarding. What Zymol wax did you use?

I am also new to the site and to having an X altogether. I bought a 2006 X5 for the wife, however I like driving it more than my new car. Where exactly did you find the front skid plate? I really like your set-up. I also had planned to put the exhaust tips on hers, however the only place I found them was on ebay for $400. Did you find a better price? Thanks in advance....Jamie

The tips and skid plate are OEM. Here are the tips I got. BMW X5 4.4 EXHAUST TIPS SET OF 4 OEM E53:eBay Motors (item 160355916592 end time Sep-13-09 15:16:22 PDT). They are for a 4.4.

You have to hunt around for the best price on the skid plate.
