detailed the x5 and few mods
 
I never seem to get time to do alot to my own cars. SO this weekend no jobs booked in (apart from Dharman's one series) gave me the opportunity to detial the x5. Didnt take pics whilst doing it (too lazy lol) but you get the idea by the finished results :-)

What year E53 do you have? I ask because my engine cover is diffrent then yours. And like Mrbmw asked.... why no Carbon Fiber on the door tim. You have it in the dash.... why not doors too?

I took all the rubber bits out and had them painted gloss black along with the kit... I was getting tired of using back to black all the time lol!

hi mine is a 2006 4.8

I brought the ACS trim second hand not sure if ACS did the door pieces so hence I painted them black as they were wood before.
