Best way to make X5 xdrive45e Xline more aggressive?

I didn’t see any mention of lowering the X. Just had ours done and no noticeable difference in bumpiness and still smooth

We went with the MSS adjustable kit at full dump. Would also lower the vehicle for your girls and wifey.

Yeah, thinking about doing that with RG Sport and their lowering kit. But I drive with the suspension in sport mode already. Just wondering if it will make that much of a difference in looks.

It will. It’ll drop about 1.5” on full dump.
Wife was very happy with the looks, ride feel, and the height.

I wonder how the vinyl has held up.

Thanks BzsBimmer took your advice and lowered the car with lowering links and install by RG Sport. Definetely looks and rides different (in a good way). Also added aftermarket LCI taillights for final touches (hopefully)...lol. Sorry for the dirty car, more rain expected in LA.

That looks really good. Hopefully the fam can transition in and out of the beast a lot easier as well.
