Re: Newbie 40d owner
Very nice indeed. Which Angel eyes did you use? When I enquired about the 50i tips for mine, I was told they were not available.
Stick a couple of posts in the X6 forum on what you have had done, and any mods that had to be made to the OEM kit to make things fit.

Re: Newbie 40d owner
I *might* go for a respray on the wheels (ferric grey or matt black) and a di-noc CF roof, but am really undecided/in 2 minds about both. I might just drive it for a while first before giving it up to another bodyshop!

Welcome
Lovely looking motor (jealous).
I think a CF roof would look awesome. Can you do a Photoshop mock up?
