Where do I get parts to black out my X5?
Hey guys,
Noob here haha! I recently decided to do some cosmetic mods to my black G05 2019 X5 and wanted to know where to get certain parts to black out the stock silver accents. Thought it would be as simple as a quick google search but turns out it's harder than I thought. I suppose I can just get the parts painted or wrapped but are there aftermarket or OEM parts I can buy? and which ones should I get? Currently looking for: - Front Fog Light Eyebrow Cover Trim (black) - Front Bumper Splitter (black) - Wheel Arches for front and rear tires painted (black) - Rear bumper diffuser (black) The only thing that was obvious and that I've changed thus far is the front kidney grill. If you guys have any suggestions on a full body kit that looks good and is all inclusive I'd love to see what's out there. your expertise is very much appreciated! Cheers! |

All of the black-out parts I see on ebay and Alibaba are for the M Sport bumper - I have seen a forum member wrap those parts in black after failing to find replacements.
If I see any (I'm currently scouring ebay for some stuff for my car) I'll post links. |

Depending on where you are located, look for someone who can professionally "dip" those parts. I had my grills done and they look awesome! It works out to be a lot cheaper and if one day you decide to go back to original, there are no problems!!

Would any reputable body shop be able to color match the paint for the things like the fender arches or the stock silver accents? My preference would be to just have a body shop do that, is there an obvious downside that I am overlooking? This would be for an owned car, not lease.
Thank you. |
