I like what you did man with your X5. You paid several thousand for the MSport package so if you want to add an M badge, you paid for it. Hell BMW put it on everything but the tailgate anyway.

I just ordered a X5 M50i. I am asking the dealer if they can do a badge delete, I'm old school though. I say that to say that it is all personal preference and I think that yours was tastefully done. Can't say the same for all.

With a GLE badge you cloud fool a lot of people but nobody will believe it's a G. Are you also planning on softening the suspension? 😜

I am thinking on badging mine iX5

I didn't drink that one in all honesty, just lazy to clean up. My neighbour drank that one while I was cleaning the car before the Corona crisis.
I prefer a good gin-tonic or a glass of Banyuls Roumani or something along those lines (great stuff). Don't have those in my garage though hehe

It's Tanzanite Blue II Individual - colour can shift depending on the lighting - looks best when it's sunny outside but also looks good in regular Belgian weather, then it just looks very dark blue / almost black in evenings

Excellent I hoped it was Tanzanite Blue II as that's what I've just ordered and it looks great in that shot

it really depends largely on lighting what it looks like, I personally dig the colour shift when the sun hits the paint. When there is no sun around it still looks classy.

Great shot. Front looks dark blue, almost black, back a brighter medium blue. Captured the effects of different light all in one shot. Amazing how dramatic the difference is just from some shadows, at the same moment in time. Colors like Carbon Black can change a lot too, but usually need altogether different lighting/time of day shots to capture the differences in pics.

Looks good but I would think that rather than black out front reflector, you would want to make them body color so as not to be seen.

Im also looking to black out rear badges, where did you get them and how much?
