The Story
This black BMW G05 X5 xDrive50e LCI shows how far a plug-in hybrid SUV can go with a well-chosen set of upgrades. It came into our workshop in Woerden for a complete package: a DCE Parts axleback, genuine BMW M60i exhaust tips, airmatic lowering, PSR Parts gloss black styling, 12 mm wheel spacers and original BMW carbon interior trims.
The sound comes from the DCE Parts X5 50e axleback. The factory rear silencer keeps the B58 straight-six of the plug-in hybrid very quiet, so the engine's character barely reaches the cabin when the petrol side takes over. The DCE axleback replaces that muffler with a valvetronic rear section that gives the 50e a fuller, deeper six-cylinder voice while the valves still allow a calm mode for daily driving. We fitted the quad outlet version without tips and combined it with a set of genuine BMW M60i exhaust tips in gloss black. That keeps the rear perfectly OEM+: it looks like it left the factory this way, but it sounds clearly better. For anyone searching for a BMW X5 50e exhaust or an X5 50e axleback, this is the setup to hear.
The stance comes from G05 airmatic lowering. Because the X5 50e rides on air suspension, there is no need for springs or coilovers. Adjustable lowering links tell the air suspension to settle lower, so the car drops evenly front and rear while the airmatic keeps its full comfort, self-levelling and height modes.
The styling is all PSR Parts gloss black. The X5 G05 LCI front splitter sharpens the new LCI bumper, the short side skirts (not the full length version) add a clean line along the sills, and the rear diffuser frames the M60i tips. On the tailgate sits an X5M style spoiler for the G05, and gloss black mirror caps finish the look. Together they turn the black X5 into a complete shadowline build without changing its character.
To fill the arches, we fitted 12 mm G05 spacers with hub lip and matching bolts, which push the wheels out to a flush stance. Inside, original BMW carbon interior trims replace the standard trim pieces for a sportier cabin.
