You're welcome Thomas. Unfortunately I've read that it wasn't going to be an easy task, as it needs for the internal arcs of the front tires to be removed and some other front bumpers clips, so I took it to the dealership, they did the job, which took them like 3 hours.

Now I'm the only crazy guy in my country who spent an estimate of $600 for doing this haha. Here are some pics with the results
not crazy. looks very nice

I have it on my MY21 X5 M50i. Front chrome including grill, side mirror caps, wheels, badging on rear, and tailpipe trim. Looks great with Mineral White Metallic but as mentioned above it’s a bitch to keep clean. It water spots quickly. I’m bring my X5 in for wrap and ceramic coating tomorrow, should take care of the issue. I’ll post on another thread when it’s complete!

Does Arctic Gray ever have a purple look? Blue is OK, but not a fan of purple.

I'm looking to change mine out. Someone broke one with a dang shopping cart at the grocery store a couple of weeks back. I'm thinking or wrapping them in a CF wrap before I reinstall them.
