X5 question....

Hi! I'm new to these message boards, but have a question for other X5 owners. I have a 2001 4.4 without the sport package. The chrome strips around the windows have clouded over and look awful. Anyone else notice this?

Thanks in advance for your comments.

It sounds like the strips are defective. I would take it to the nearest BMW dealer and have them replaced.

It's almost time for my 15,000 mile service anyway, so I intend to address the issue with them then. It's just disappointing to pay that much for a vehicle and have something so noticeable look that way.

I agree with you. There is a special black paint you can use to paint the chrome strips.
