Hi guys!

Ive just ordered the parts for my new projekt. Im gonna Swap out the whole bodykit on my normal F25 X3 to give it the m-sport look. The reason im doing this and not buying one from the dealers is beacause the X3 m-sport is quite rare where im from.

Ive begun the project by ordering the parts and other accessories.
Front and rear bumper from Latvia
Side skirts, door mouldings, wheel arches, grilles and other accessories from germany
Rear diffuser for the rear bumper from UK.

The front and rear bumper is painted right now at the sellers and the other parts will go to the paintshop when they arrive.


Ive gone trough the f25 service manual and this should be all that i need.

Are M-Sports in that short of supply that you cant just sell your X-Line and buy an M-Sport? I cant imagine the price difference is more than buying the parts for the conversion...

So the project has come to an end with the price-tag landing under 1000 euros which was my goal.

Sorry for the lack of updates.

Have to say after working with bmw parts that the installation is just a joy! Everyrthing fits like a glove and with the right tools its almost like a playing with LEGO!

Im so pleased with the results!!
