blacked out

geodeo · 02-18-2019, 05:37 PM

blacked out my 2018 Oct build X3-30D M-Sport with tartufo leather, tinted windows,HK sound, 21 inch alloys and have got full screen carplay going - the world is great!!!

Lux700 · 02-18-2019, 05:41 PM

Good colour combo. All black looks menacing...

Dutch1576 · 02-18-2019, 05:47 PM

Gorgeous! Love how it all comes together. Are you going to eventually do the hood & trunk emblems, and wheel caps to full black?

teaston · 02-18-2019, 05:59 PM

Very nice!

Just needs springs, spacers and corner splitters now!

fricfracfrank · 02-18-2019, 06:00 PM

Are you going to show us full screen CarPlay or just leave it to the imagination

geodeo · 02-18-2019, 06:48 PM

and as requested full screen car play

couchgate · 02-18-2019, 06:58 PM

any issues with the front tint and display dimming?

sinbad4 · 02-18-2019, 09:08 PM

F$cking Glorious! Love it!

geodeo · 02-18-2019, 09:17 PM

Thanks - my partner thinks it looks like I designed it like wakanda

SteveX3M40i · 02-18-2019, 10:10 PM

Wow - that looks amazing!

BuddhaTB · 02-18-2019, 10:38 PM

The reflection on the black is amazing! Great job with the black out and interior!

chicagofan00 · 02-18-2019, 11:17 PM

Looks fantastic!

MattXYZ · 02-19-2019, 12:44 AM

Looks great geodeo! For that slick shine, is that after a good clean and wax polish? Or have you had some kind of coating?

The blacked out looks really good!

IXVXI · 02-19-2019, 04:52 AM

Sensational!

MechX3M40i · 02-19-2019, 05:07 AM

Awesome looking car! Very nicely done! Congrats!

How did you get the license plate to match?

I guess your car is a hot climate car without the active grill... You might want to paint the inverted V behind the grill Matt black too.

Post more pics in case you consider doing additional black out to the emblems or the lights...
