Aza auto wheel is the only company you should buy custom steering wheel from. They hand make it themselves. Pricey but well worth it

when you get older, you'll forget about it…screw that man's negative feedback, if you wanna dish nonsense, u gotta be able to take it as well

you act like a child. "he said something negative first" okay, it's your car, have fun with it. I love my car to death, no one will ever make me feel bad about owning a 135i😂 try harder next time dude and thanks for letting us know you fit in with all the black dodge ram owners. Grow up.

👌🏻👌🏻

Great looking X5M, congrats! This looks like my car's older brother, lol.

The beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder. While not being a fan of vehicles which appear as if they had spent several months parked in a coal mine, this one looks great. Congrats!

Changing the color of those shrouds inside would consist of splitting the headlight open. Normally done by putting them in the oven to heat up the adhesives and separate it open. Other methods are using a dremel to cut the housing open. Sealing it back can lead to moisture issues. I personally wouldn't even think about butchering my oem headlights especially those matrix headlights prob worth around $2k each brand new each. You would have to really trust whoever does it.

If you come in with a stupid ass comment, what do you think was going to be the end result lol…there's ways to say things and the way he went about it wasn't it.
