Hi in 2020year.

first time in our Latvia history we dont have snow and weather is +1c to +7c all other winter seasons we have cold -10c to -25c

And yes, IX is in winter sleep, and start to “tuning”

First with brake calipers, i paint in 2017 brake calipers silver/black color, looks nice, but i want more “sport” style

Last week i take off brake calipers, then i clean with sand storm, then i clean with brake cleaner, next paint with ground and paint with color, and the result is more then cool




Annnnnnd



Maybe in this weekend can take picture with brake calipers on IX.

Next, mirror and side trim painting.

Cya.

Great work!

I bumped in to this treat again after years.
(Because I would like to buy a BMW again. Sold mine years ago due to copany car.) Amazing to see what you've done in that time.

Perhaps I could give you a tip.
You can do a lot of the yellow lights in white.
It fresh up the X1.

The major impact would be the angel eye's and fog lights but don't stop there.
Trunk space, roof, glove compartment,...

After changing some lights you need a bit of re-coding (I think it was for the fog lights, not sure off the rest). That gives you a good excuse to (re)code more stuff.

Hey, your rear lights did you code yours that way? As mine only lights up at the corners �� and did the car come with the angel lights?

Btw car looks amazing!
