Looks great! I want to see some more photos of the roof outside of the garage.

That is a hefty price for the mirror caps but IND does amazing work and sometimes you just have to pay to play!

Added a Future Classic club sticker. Wanted something to kind of commemorate the day I bought the X3.

Not 100% sure I like the placement. We'll see how it is while driving.

Installed a new 900s 2 channel BlackVue dashcam with a blendmount.

It's hot.

Finally swapped out the studded tires, and for the first time drove with the stock 18" smooth summer rubber. It's SO QUIET! (With double layer side windows) And it eats bumps like a champ!
Nothing to take a photo of, as it's almost like it got too narrow tires mounted (225), but if not looking to much, it's acceptable!

I thought the stock 30d wheels were 19” though!?

Almost. If going for "Advantage edition", which is not xLine or M-sport or Luxury, then it's 18" here, since no M-sport brakes.
But my guess is that my 30d is one of the few not having any Line package...

Nice , I had the bmw dash cam fitted before I collected mine, the quality is very poor,so removed and fitted blackview 750s 2 channel.
Just added WiFi hotspot to car so I now have cloud coverage also .
Did you fit power magic pro , or battery for parking mode

Nice set up

Corrected, Coated, PPF'ed and tinted. With few extra blings that do nothing to add any HP/TQ.







Just need to remember to put this sign up during service visits,

Looking really good! I like the M performance stripes on the darker colors. Don't think I could pull it off with Glacier Silver though.

Unfortunately I don't have a pic, but it's pretty standard right square in the upper middle mounted flush against the glass where you'd expect. There's actually a little square box right where it should go

I added a BlackVue B-124 external battery that now sits in my glove box. It's attached to Fuse 47 for switched power.
