Mods for X5 4.8i

Hey fellas,

Got myself a little christmas present. The X5 4.8i with sport package in Monaco blue with Tobacco interior. I've only had the truck for two weeks and already I have the mod bug. For starters I will be tinting front windows and I would like to get a nice set of pedals.....I was thinking AC Schnitzer. Any other suggestions? I'm also looking into doing the OEM aero kit. I think it needs it...too much flat black going on with the bumpers.

Does anyone happen to have pics of a blue X5 with aero kit? Please post or pm. Thanks

Sorry, this isn't Monaco Blue, but here's an E70 with the aero kit installed (from Bimmerfest forums):

Congrats on the new X5... great choice! If your X5 turns out anything near your GT2 it is going to be an amazing machine. I am not sure if you remember or not but I went on a drive out to jones beach last spring with you and a bunch of other 6speeders..... I still am telling my buddies the story or how you rocked that SC vette that was stocking us when we left......Legendary!

Hey, whats up yeah I do remember that. That was a good meet. I'm definitely not going as crazy as I did with the GT2. The X is a 2 year lease, not worth putting the money into. I just want it to look a little different from the average X5.

Hey RCNJ: I just noticed you're from NJ -- can I ask what dealer you went with and what kind of deals they're offering on the new E70 X5s?

jubu- I bought it at Park Ave in Maywood. I did a 24 month lease with 15k miles per year. I gave $2500 total out of pocket and my payment is $1k even. This also includes tire and wheel insurance and the msrp was $72,670.00. This was one of the last 07's left so I got a better deal. If I would of bought an 08' I would be paying probably almost $200 more per month.
