1. Why Are BMW X5 Aftermarket Parts Necessary
Now that the post-minivan era of automobiles has sent soccer moms flocking to crossovers and
SUVs; now is as good of a time as any to start adding some aftermarket parts to your BMW X5.
Face it, you’re ego would surely be bruised if your X5 was confused for one with french fries
between the seats and ketchup stains on the carpet. So what do you do to make your SUV
stand out from the rest?
Visual Upgrades
For starters, the best to differentiate your X5 from those of the soccer moms is to add a nice set
of aftermarket wheels. They will most likely run you two months-worth of car payments per
wheel, but that price will be more than worth it knowing your badass BMW SUV doesn’t look
like every other one on the road.
If you’re feeling really eager to change the look of your SUV – you could always go with an
aftermarket suspension and add a set of coilovers. Not only will it improve the ride quality of
your BMW X5, but EVERYBODY will know it’s not some soccer-mom-mobile.
Performance Upgrades
After you make some visual changes to make it known your SUV doesn’t spend its afternoons in
the parent pick-up line – it’s time for some aftermarket X5 performance parts that will ease
your internal concerns about driving a mommy-mobile.
Obviously the upgrade options available to you will depend on which generation of X5 you own,
however, it is never a bad idea to start with upgrading the DME’s software to get some instant
gratification. With an aftermarket software upgrade you
won’t have to tell yourself; “you didn’t buy an SUV to
get groceries.” All you’ll have to do is give the X5 some
gas and let it give you a quick reminder as to who is
boss.
There’s one other way you can separate your X5 from
the masses driven by stay-at-home Moms. Add some
form of exhaust component so that others can hear the
difference between your X5 and an all stock one that is a
frequent visitor of the Chucky Cheese parking lot.
Conclusion
SUVs don’t have to be only for Moms with young kids. Add some BMW X5 aftermarket parts
and there will no longer be any confusion.
