exhaust tips are the ones that came with ''meisterschaft GT''

king:
I took an appointment with my body shop to solve the tips problem and get them painted in matt black. I will ask the dealer about the side sills (got an idea of their price?) finally,MC FOR EVER :p
and the wheels are gloss. I just came back from Reem track(raceway) its 40miles out of Riyadh. I took some pics on the way back , will post them soon . with a professional SLR camera.

thank you all. :)

WOW. That is perfect. I like the black door moldings too, wouldn't change a thing (well maybe I'd add 1 or 2 shades of tint to the rear lights). Good work!

The side sills are basically what the X5's without running boards have. I actually bought a set used from someone who installed running boards and had no use for them. My X5 is black so I don't have to get them painted and they will match the wheel arches and bumpers for an all black look!

I think your exhaust tips need more work than just painting them black. They need to be cut back! They stick out too much. My body shop recommended powdercoating the tips as even the high heat paint will start to fade or look weathered after a while.

You could paint the side strips white - (that's what the X5M looks like) although the black accents look good on yours like the roof rails and mirrors.

Looking forward to more pics!
