Alpine White X-line, body kit color match, black rims!

Hi All,
My car has been locked in the workshop for 34 days due to 24hrs curfew laws in protection from the Coronavirus. Thankfully, the situation is much better now and the curfew is lifted, life is getting back on track, and I ran to get my car back

Here's my build for my 2019 X5 X-Drive40i.
With the X-line finish, and the 19" wheels.

I got the body kit matched in Alpine White, created a somehow looking Diffuser, matched the Exhausts in metallic Black. Painted the rims with metallic Black as well, and got myself Red calipers.

Next in the pipeline, black window tinting 25%
Window frame to be Blacked out, IND black Kidneys, and blacking out the silver front end fog light decoration.

Here are some pics!

Looks great.

For the grill, I would advise you check out the oem black grille. Its both cheaper and better looking. Check out my previous threads to see pics of when I blacked out the grilles surrounds. Sadly by them I had already ordered an oem grille which I later installed.

Also, there are a few shops who will blackout any chrome with the 3m tape and it will both protect and provide you with the look you are looking for.

Thanks for the reply.
Actually, your car was the last thread that made me excited to do it. However, i was worried. Bit for my color which was a bit tricky to find someone who would match it, and was worried a little for the back end look, as yours is all black which looks nice. I have to say i am happy with the results

Apologies for the delayed response but here is the website i used to order the grille through a shipping forwarding inbox i have in the US. Arrived about 10 days later in Riyadh (Pre-Covid days).

Took 30 seconds to install and looks great.
