Wifey's X5 Facelift / E55 X5 Photos

Well… since my wife gave up her 350z's so she could be more ‘responsible’ and have ‘more room’ (underline meaning, space for baby seats) haha…. She has always said she really liked the X5 but didn’t really love it b/c it was blaaaa looking…. Soooooo, me being a good husband face lifted her X5. She picked everything out, I ordered it, spent a day of hell in a hot garage detailing (NEVER BUY A BLACK CAR) and building it and here is the outcome……

Im a lucky man… she has good taste in her car mods !!!! This thing looks sick

Matte Black Grille
Smoke side markers
Black and White BMW 7 piece badge set
20x9 Front / 20x10 Rear Black M6 Replicas













Washed the wife’s and my car, pulled them both out of the garage and took a few shots… Can't say I don’t like the way our driveway looks….

REALLY NICE JOB ON THE FACE-LIFT.... Maybe some before pictures would help because alot of people here are probably unsure what changes were made.... I know headlights, fenders and bumpers were changed... what about hood??? or was it just grilles?
