Picked up my X3M non-comp a couple of weeks ago. Just back from ceramic coating today and took some pictures. Absolutely love this car. Other than the ceramic coat added 50% tint all around, Blend Mount with power cord and mute button, and did some coding on my ambient lights (stole the color idea from a different thread). Still a lot more to add later but need to calm down on the cash outlay for a while to keep the wife happy! 😂 Can't wait for the break in service to really open this up. As much as I loved my X4 M40i it's no comparison to the X3M.

That's really nice looking but the $3k (!) price tag is a no go for me.

Ask RW Carbon. They usually make cheap CF copies.

Spacers

Compared to stock,the effective offset of my aftermarket wheels and tires (265 35 22x9 +32, 295 30 22x10.5 +35) is +17mm rear but 0 front. To even the stance, I installed 15mm spacers on the front only. Looks just about right now I think. First pic is pre-spacers.

I was in my garage just the other day looking at my X3M parked next to my wife's 2016 M-Sport X5 and was noticing just how nice the flared wheel well arches looked on her car. Then I saw you post this picture up. FYI: Hamann has these arches listed in the price sheet now: MSRP 2.888,40 € Yikes!!!! This is roughly $3200. I hope that is a typo. These should be like $100-150 a piece.
