Looks good! Great to see more people modding the X3 beyond wheels and tires. what did you use for the lights... film or spray? what about pics of the side markers? I had mine replaced on my 3 series but haven't found any for the X3 yet, hadn't thought of just wrapping them.

The tail lights are sprayed and everything else is film...

Actually plastidip is really good just have to know what you're doing or have a Pro Shop do it

I like everything but the rear tail lights are too dark for my taste.

What does the rear window sticker say?

Do you have a difference of the front turn signals before and after? I want to see if the invisibulbs make much of a difference in the actual appearance of the front.

I don't have a picture of the before and after but I bought the LED ones not the bulbs! And I always switch them back to the orange ones for my nys inspection because I always get failed when I go in!i but the only thing bad about the LED ones is it produces such a low voltage that my car doesn't recognize it and gives me an error so when I go in sometimes I have to turn my blinker on so it knows they are there
