My Ride: 2008 Silverstone II E60 M5 2012 E70 AW X5 50i Sport w/ LCI Aero Kit and Rocker Panels
![Default](https://5series.net/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
2012 Alpine White E70 LCI X5 50i Sport (Twin Turbo V8 - 400HP/450TQ Stock) - LOADED (The new X5 50i's even come with paddle shifters finally! Hahaha!)
People ask why I didn't do the MKit and chose the new LCI Aero Kit instead. A few reasons:
1. Everyone has the M Kit and I wanted this to be different (not to mention, I already own a real M
)
2. This is a truck and I think the new Aero Kit gives it the look it deserves (I like the beefy, yet sporty and aggressive look of the new Aero Kit)
3. I believe I am only one of a small handful of owners that have the new, full LCI Aero Kit installed in the US (I have yet to see one on the road and there are only 2 owners on Xoutpost that have this kit installed).

"Heat Shields behind exhaust were also painted black, so chrome would not reflect when driver from rear was viewing". Good choice. Hate to see cars/suvs with black tips, only to see the chrome reflect off the cans.
