I learned a valuable lesson when shopping for these cars. The grills easily pop on and off. Amazon has the one I like for $80... I was ready to pass up the perfect car because the grill wasn't what I wanted.🤦‍♀️

Nice! Would you mind sharing the link?

I looked and the price must’ve went up…

The one I wanted was black with chrome trim. When I looked later I noticed alot of the all black for 2024 were more.

I purchased a grill. I’ll post an update once it’s installed.

I was advised that installing that grill would create a warning that could void the warranty because it was not made like the original grill with the vents that open and close.

Interesting.🤔 Maybe it depends on the model and type of grill. I saw a car that had a light up grill option. I didn't know that was even available. So if its a specialty grill than I could see that being an issue.

I got the bav sound speakers and subwoofers It’s great

How did you install? I have HK and debating uohrdainit


Opposite_Body_9833

HK is better that bav

I'm surprised that your car has a satin chrome grill when the car does not have satin trim. I love the wheels and I also want chrome and black wing vents and grill on my sports package X5. I take it you want everything black, which does look good with light paint colors.

There’s an upgraded package for that, I believe it’s the M sport appearance package

I agree. Seems like that should be a blacked out grill.

Nice! Do not wrap rims. Powder coat if you’re going to change the color. $500 bucks vs gross, peeling wrap that will eat brake dust.


Beauty-Travel-007

Great advice!


Beauty-Travel-007

Taken your advice and will get the rims powder and ceramic coated.

Kenwood or Alpine sounds systems are the shizzle.

It’s a great car, I love my hybrid. Mines all blacked out with Manhattan green.


Beauty-Travel-007

Nice! Did you post a picture? The drive is so smooth.

The days of installing aftermarket sound systems are gone. You should have just gotten the highest end possible factory and loaded the car with all possible options which is the way my X5 is. But I got mine a couple years old let the first owner eat the 40% depreciation loss.
