My Ride: 2007 Silver Grey 530 XI
Looks great, bro! Sounds like a similar journey of mine! I too decided that AWD was a necessity when buying. It was the best thing I ever did. Especially with Ohio winters.
Good to see another sweet looking Xi on here.

My Ride: 2007 525xi
It's pretty high on the to-do list! I did my front brakes two weeks ago.. doing my front ones this weekend. Really wanna get those in before it gets too cold.
But if time permits over the weekend, I'll probably do the shadowline during then.
Looking at the picture in your sig.. Looks like you already have the shadowline trim, so you don't need to do this
Plasti-Dip comes off really easily, if you want it to. It's so far been very very strong against any chips or drive-through high-pressure carwashes.

It's old! I just haven't changed it yet
I currently have a 2008 535xi with the damn chrome. Would love to get them black without spending a fortune.
Is the trim easy to get off? Is there a DIY somewhere on this forum on how to remove the trim?
