That hurts my brain.

Have you considered the rear window? That wouldn't throw off the rear-end grace-of-it-all.

Can you see the lower left corner (driver-side) of your rear window in the rear-view of an X3? You can't in an X6; it was eclipsed by a headrest. I had a sticker there and couldn't see it in my rear-view. It was only about 1/2 the size of a CCA sticker though.

That diffusor looks great. I haven't been sold on them yet but that may change my mind.

I have a 19 plate X3 so far just done 4000 miles in it and I love the car except I think that the peddles are too close. Any one else feel the same?

I just picked it up from the BMW Collision Center. They replaced the rear bumper cover. Some 76 year old guy left his foot off the brake at a stop light and gave me a slight bump. My 2020 X3 M40 was only a 2 weeks old.
The Insurance company wanted to just respray the cover. BMW told them that wasn't acceptable with their safety standards and sensors. That slight bump was almost $2000. Hopefully this is the only time .

I wouldn’t say the pedals are too close, though I don’t have particularly big/wide feet, but I do think the difference in height between the accelerator and brake pedals is a bit too much - don’t know if either can be adjusted?

Good day evr1. I've asked this in a cpl other more appropriate threads but no response and so I was wondering if being a bit more active thread here, maybe someone does have the answer. Trying to get some info on why wouldn't it be an option to simply buy the M Badged blacked out grills, for the non M version of the G01. Is it a direct fit? Price wise at least in the US is about $200 for the set. Thanks

Yes I’ve had load of other cars and my other car is a M5 F19 version and no problem with the peddles on that car only the X3. I might have to ask the garage if they can be adjusted.

Love the diffuser! Do you have a link where you bought it from?

Did you have any problems with fitment or the PDC sensors like others have mentioned in another thread?

I’ve had a good dig around the various X3 forums but can’t see any solutions to adjusting the pedal height. It feels like it’s not possible but happy to be proved wrong

Thank you very much ! They all problematic. I highly recommend a body shop to take care of it.
PDC holes have to be trim.
Paint job need to be re-done.
Fitment is a lottery.

But when everything is done, is beautiful.
People didn't even noticed that is closest replica of F90 (M5 Competition) M-Performance diffuser.
Here is a picture. Thats why it looks so good on it. Its a bimmer design

Mate, there were hints above, it is PEDALS not peddles 😂

Recently got the back lights smoked, front lip splitter attached, black grill and trims, and CF mirror caps with hood and trunk roundels. Now that gray rear diffuser has got to go.

Those smoked back lights look awesome.
Did you buy a set or can you have them “painted” ?

I had them painted at a local shop. I really love how they turned out. And the lights are still plenty bright at night so no one rear ends me.
