My Ride: 07 550i Ti Grey SP.
05 4.4 X5
Just got the car back from the repair shop. Told them three times on the last day they had it not to wash the car. The moron decided instead to just rinse it off and wipe it with a towl. Scratched the paint all to hell. They have agreed to pay for a professional polish.
Anyway, the car looks great. They installed the Mtek kit and it looks pretty good. The kit cost me right at $1,600 and the install was $1,000. $2,600 didn't seem bad for the entire job.
