What did you do to your G01 X3 today?

animal.style · 08-31-2019, 02:20 PM

Detailed and debadged! Still deciding where to put my gloss black M40i badge (or even if I'm gonna put it on)

On an entirely different note, this is the first vehicle I have ever regretted not doing a clear bra on the front. So many little chips in the bumper.

Very cool. Glad you got everything ok! Those lights are a bit of a PITA to get in but they look great once installed.

They weren't too bad. I used a trim removal tool and popped them out pretty easily. Can't wait to see them when it's darker out.

I had a hell of time getting them in. Popping out the original pieces was simple. Maybe it was just user error on my end. Glad you like them!

Yeah, you can't see the chips from just a few short feet away but I know they are there.

The sun shades to seem to make a bit of a difference. They kiddos seem to enjoy the added shade it's provided.

Looks really good. Much better than the finger print laden and micro scratch filled black piano trim.

Spent the past couple of days completing and entire cerium delete on my '19 M40i in graphite after having the 19" stock wheels powdercoated gloss black. The roads are crap where I live so going larger on wheels would not have been a smart investment.

HUGE thanks to Ryan@IND for all of the help with the gloss black replacement parts to complete the full cerium delete, complete with new badging and roundels. Need to finish off the center caps, and also valve stems. Having her ceramic'd and tinted in a couple of weeks. Then she is good to go for a bit and will be exactly how I pictured her.

After a few dislikes from the forum, I decided to revamp my rear hatch sill/ Lip modification as one or two comments did have some validity.

Cheers

You better start a new thread (or use some old one). I believe many will answer and this thread become something else (

A set of 20" MSW Type 48 wheels for the winter.

GoodGuyAvi · 09-03-2019, 05:36 PM

So guys I applied GUMMI PFLEGE on all rubbers. Lets see if it will help to remove any squeaking.
I’ll definitely report back.
