Glad I went with it, looked too boring without it. Easy install, its just a long matte blackish vinyl basically.

Looks good. Gives a nice contrast to the white color of the car.

jmhumr · 04-04-2018, 09:26 PM

Looks much better! I've never been a fan of the boxy, low profile M-Sport style. The black swoosh on your new skirt gives the car some height.

d_am · 04-05-2018, 12:42 AM

Looks awesome!

mikeyb74 · 04-05-2018, 12:31 PM

Looks good!

bimmerdriver2 · 04-07-2018, 06:55 PM

It looks really good. I prefer the M version over the regular version. The black looks good with the white paint.

mikeyb74 · 04-08-2018, 04:57 PM

What's next for mods? I can see black mirror caps and the M Performance belt line stripes.

Oooh good suggestions. I honestly don't know yet.
My friends keep telling me to do a muffler delete and change the exhaust tips but I think that might be too ricey. I also haven't heard what it would sound like, I tried looking on youtube but no luck.

Leave the muffler alone. What about doing a air intake or performance tuner module? I'm thinking aFe air intake and the dinantronic sport performance.

Ooooh thanks for the links! I'll look into those, was looking at the dinan vs JB4. If you end up getting them soon, I'd love to see some videos / photos!

Not sure which I'm going to go with myself. I came from a MINI background with software tuning. I am hoping Manic Tuning does something for the X1/X2.

Leave mufflers alone, but do the exhaust tips

ooh hopefully, and with the new X2, I'd assume there should be more stuff coming out. It's the same engine if Im not mistaken?

808X1 · 04-12-2018, 01:27 AM

They are actually from Ali Express. eBay has them as well.

The tips look awesome! Did you have to weld them on, or were they just bolt/slip on?

Thanks!

This looks awesome! I might consider doing this, where did you get the vinyl?

Thanks!

simon. · 04-17-2018, 08:30 AM

You can buy at considerable cost from your BMW dealer but I'd guess any decent car graphics company could supply & fit.

Look good OP & might consider putting some on my EB 25D MSport.
