2024 X6M Competition - Individual Chalk

I took delivery of my vehicle on February 13th and picked it up today from the detailer after its first maintenance wash and checkup. So far, I've driven 562 miles and have only been driving in comfort mode until the break-in service. It's too early for me to give an honest review, but from my perspective, the complaints about a harsh ride are overstated. I find the vehicle to be comfortable for what it is. Coming from a 2019 RS5 Sportback, I find this vehicle just as, if not more, comfortable in the lowest settings than that Audi. Perhaps I'm just use to a firm suspension. I'll post more pictures soon and a more detailed review after the break in period.

Below is a list of everything I've had done so far:

Detailing:
  • XPEL Ultimate Plus PPF on the full front (full hood, full front bumper, headlights, and side mirrors).
  • XPEL Ultimate Plus PPF on rocker panels.
  • Feynlab Ultra V2 ceramic coating on the full car.
  • Feynlab Overcoat V3 on the full car.
  • Feynlab Ceramic Wheel and Caliper coating.
  • Feynlab Window Coating.
  • Gyeon Q2 LeatherShield ceramic coating.

Tinting:
  • XPEL XR Plus tint: 15% on front, sunroof, matched rear windows.
  • XPEL XR Plus tint: 50% on windshield.
  • Luxe Dark Gloss tint on taillights.
  • Luxe Dark Gloss front reflector delete.

Visual Modifications:
  • OEM Carbon Fiber Front Grill.
  • OEM Carbon Fiber Mirror Caps.
  • OEM Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser.
  • OEM Carbon Fiber Rear Spoiler.
  • OEM Carbon Fiber/Titanium M Performance Quad Exhaust Tips.
  • OEM Carbon Fiber License Plate Frame.
  • Acexxon Rear Reflector 3D Honeycomb.
  • OEM BMW M Logo Valve Stem Cap Set in Black.
  • IND Carbon Fiber Floating Wheel Center Cap Set.
  • IND Carbon Fiber Roundel Set.

Interior:
  • OEM M Performance Floor Mat Set.
  • OEM M Performance Steering Wheel Cover in Carbon Fiber.

Thanks! I need to get some better photos. Those pics don't do the color any justice.

Thanks! My RS5 Sportback was Nardo, and Chalk is also a favorite of mine. I prefer this shade over Brooklyn Grey. I don't like the blue hue it has.

Nice. The problem I see with this chalk/gray color palette is that I now see way too many Hondas, Nissans, Toyotas, Chevys and Fords with a color way too similar. Of course it looks the very best on a BMW, Pcar or Audi.

Yeah, but they're not the same. They all have different hues. I compare it to the several variations of Blue, Red and Silver. I like Audi's Nardo, Porsche's Chalk, and my wife's Alpine Grey GLE 450 has grown on me, which was a new color for 2024.

The Kias, Fords, and Dodges all have different hues ranging from brown to blue tones, and most have chrome trim, which, in my opinion, doesn't look good on these colors. They also just don't pop as much to me. Could be my bias though. Some are also metallic, like BMW's Brooklyn Grey, and aren't flat paint. The chances of someone seeing another BMW X6 M Comp in Chalk are pretty slim. I like that!
