Wow, very well done! Looks real nice X5. I would love to see it in person. It would be great to see some daytime shots too when you get a chance.

VERY NICE!

I actually ordered glossy black stripes from Aesthetic Creations....dang thing is taking weeks to get to me.

In the meantime, I experimented and installed some red pin-stripes for added contrast. I think its a keeper.

Amazing looking MINI! If you Joey mod the lights I think it would finish it off.

Looks sweet! Hope I see your mini running around in LA. I have no doubt pictures are not doing it justice.

- yea, i got a great deal on a range sport supercharged. Grey with black interior and ballz out loaded with everything. I already started modding it by turning the interior all in piano black wood finish. Might be a long term project since most of the accessories are hella expensive.

Amazing. I have an AB/AB and matte black is still one of the best looking colors for cars around. And that body kit looks great to bad they don't make one for the R56.

I've wanted to do that mod for a while now. Looking forward to the pics. When are we going to see some day pics . I'm still thinking you need a gloss silver strip like you old black one.

I'm still doing the vertical stripes on the side as well as the off-center stripe in the front. But i'm doing it in gloss black. Still waiting to hear from Aesthetic Creations...taking too long.

^^^^^YES!!! Beautiful!!! It looks so good. But again, daylight pics would be awesome to see as well. WELL DONE on the Joey Mod. That looks fantastic.

I love the red accent, so subtle, but enough to make a difference. But I do have to say it.....the Orciari just doesn't work for me. I think the effect would look SO nice with Aero Skirts and the Aero front. I can't stand how the arches do not carry into the bumper, and the way the skirts were designed looks like it's a slap on job and call it a day...no need for them to match the arches.

you know I'm not saying it looks bad, I just think it could look even better! Can't wait to see daylight photos!
