BMW X6 mods

Hello Guys,

My cousin has a dark metallic blue X6 he wants some nice modifications for the exterior or maybe an exhaust as well.

I've been using google lately and couldnt find a site which caters for this car,

What I had in mind:

Black kidney grille or something in carbon fiber

Carbon fiber side mirrors ?

Exhaust system

Is there any subtle bodykit, individual parts like spoiler etc ?

How do you guys like the rear wing alone on a stock car?, it will look subtle because the car is dark blue which doenst make it look too "out there" as much as a white car does

Lots of potential for the X6. IMO slap on some new wheels, slight drop, and an exhaust is enough. If you wanna go all out almost all the tuners have come out with bodykits for it i.e. Hamann, ACS, Lumma, etc. The rear ACS wing looks very nice btw, but might need a nice front lip or front bumper for a nice balance. Good luck and keep us posted!! Allah ya36eekum khaira wa yakfeekum shera inshallah..

if its a v6 let him put the jb3 chip, it will add more boost = more power,
also very cheap around 600$

The OEM gloss black wheels are SO awesome!
you mean those,right?


a lot of mods can be done ..drop,spacers,exhaust(Hartge,Hamann,AC Schnitzer etc),tune (JB3,Procede,Tuner Flashes etc.),Interior upgrades..
simply a lot of money for upgrading the car to your preferences

so :
is it really worth modding it right now when there is the new X6 M coming out?

Personally I`d try to get a good deal for the X6 M...
such a sick car!
(not meaning that the other X6 s are not nice! )
