I finally took some pictures (though crappy) of my '04 X50. The total sticker was $150k for the car with all the interior options too, though sorry, no interior pics. Who really cares about that anyway?

I've added a MAShaw front bumper, with screens to protect the radiators from all the rocks out here, along with smoked side markers. It also has 19" HRE wheels on it courtesy of a fellow forum member. I'd like to lower it, but out here in the mountains I already have issues with the low front carbon fiber lip. I may go with the Euro suspension if I do change it.

Other than that, still stock. I have a bumper to bumper warranty on it that I'd like to keep valid, plus honestly I don't really need more power to enjoy the car. I'm sure after the warranty runs out I'll end up with a Fabspeed exhaust and tune on it and add a bit more power. But that just gives me something else to do. I have 3 other cars I'm working on too!

Thanks, I think it's a big improvement over the stock one. It didn't look nearly as good without the grill screens.

I like the silver offset of the screens to highlight the big vents and add a little non-black to the car. At some point though I may go to black wheels and black out the grills too when I get bored.

The G is a whole different project. I thought Porsche modifications were expensive until I got the G. At least Porsche has lots of suppliers of modifications. For the G, there's basically only one company in the world that makes parts/mods, and boy do they charge for it!
