Nice! Couple of Little mods already, like it! ??

 

[JonnyG]

Looking good ?. BTW .... You can make photos full screen by clicking "Insert" (top left) and then "full image" option ?.. Well worth doing on nice photos like that ?

 

[siteguru]

You can also simply click on the image and see it full size anyway. This then gives mobile users an option rather than forcing full size images on them.

 

[JonnyG]

We like full power and full pictures here in the Xpower sub forum ???

Off-topic - unless I'm mistaken then it looks like this thread's OP has been released from forum detention.

Just a bit of fun Chaps. (Any Chapesses?)

If you want to add your vehicle and any modifications you have carried out that would be great.

I am genuinely interested to see what you have done (or not done) to your cars.?

My car is in Racing Green which I adore, and is a fascinating colour to see in the
flesh.

I fitted front and rear dash cameras for peace of mind.

I liked the front blade trims so added them along with a blacked out MG front badge cover.

Too Phat for some ?

Next up was an LED interior light package which gives some welcome illumination in the rear of the car.

View attachment 23191

I also changed the front courtesy lights for LED items.

A rubber mat set was next, front and rear which is essential for me living at the end of a country lane.

Next up came a Quadlock phone mount.
It's what I use on my motorbike, so I knew it would be great in the car.

My tyres were up next, something I would have done anyway, regardless of the vibe issue, which as you may know, has virtually eliminated them in my case.

View attachment 23192

The new tyres have also put paid to any more off roading I was planning on doing.

?

I am extremely happy with my car at the moment but do have a couple of other mods in the pipeline for the future. ?

Edit: I forgot to add....
LEDs, for the rear indicators and reversing lights.
Mud Flaps.
Driver Visor Extender.
Centre console storage tray.
Black X Power Badge.

Looks awesome @Bricktop X PWR ?? Are those blades easy to fit?
Also, the green lighting in the front and back. How are they powered and controlled?

Blades are childsplay.

Use some isopropol alcohol or similar to remove any polish etc, warm up both surfaces with a hair-dryer, then firmly apply.
I've jet washed mine to buggery for six months and they are still intact and looking good.

Here's where you can find out about the interior lights.?

Thread 'Rear Interior lights' Rear Interior lights

I'm post #6

Mine are plugged into Rear USB and they come on and stay in when you press the brake pedal and power up the car.
APP on your phone if you want to make changes.

This X Power I saw today had a novel way to get rid of the rear chrome MG badge.

They have just painted the outside then bunged on a Carbon Effect MG badge.

Ummm, not sure myself.

 

[salty]

Nope, not for me I'm afraid. ?

Picked up my MG4 X power this afternoon .. 100% worth every penny does have a slight vibration at 100 km/h but nothing i cant live with ..

I will keep my eyes peeled for the incoming fix from MG ..

Car drives , performs and looks amazing ( havent used the 320kw yet but dont really feel the need to i know its there if i want it ) very happy with it already put about 150km on it today charged it once from 80 to 100% ( just to figure out how to charge it )

cost me $5aud to charge 20% big test will be the cost from 20% to 80% but even with my bad maths its WAY cheaper than my petrol eating Volvo t6 was ..

Black badge covers will go on in the next day or 2 ..

Might even get the wheels just powder coated all black at some point ..

still debating on the front fins and im looking at the ssporty body kit from Thailand at some point MAYBE !!

first day will keep updates as it already done 5500kms ( EX demo car ) so if i notice any really bad issues ill post them

wired apple car play seems to work fine may try a wireless adapter ..

Brilliant! Enjoy your new motor. Keep us updated on your mods. We love pics. ???

Looks great Bricktop ?. Very envious of those tyres !! .. I really need to get some?

Here's some pics of my metallic Camden Grey XPower and the mods made so far.

Car as new :-

The first mod I made was to paint the brake caliper covers black. I know many like them orange but I was'nt a fan and prefer to stay "under the radar" in Stealth mode as much as possible . ???

View attachment 23197
View attachment 23199

The second mod was to get a black MG badge for the front ? :-

View attachment 23200

The third mod was to fit LED internal lights which made a huge difference and well worth doing IMHO?? :-

View attachment 23201

After that I also got some of those excellent "Rubber" floormats for the Winter months :-

View attachment 23202

So currently looking like this. Have to say the front suspension seems to have settled down a bit lower after 2000 miles and looks better for it. ?? :-

View attachment 23203

honestly im loving the black caliper cover paint thinking i might do my discs and caliper covers the same!!

Black wrap would be better than paint. I’ve considered dismantling mine to rid it of the chrome, but seals would be disturbed.

Heres some bits ive done lately. Carbon to all 4 doors. Red mats as its a Gloomy interior, orange nut caps & valve caps. Going to do my calipres Acid green & match em up with nut caps etc. unsure wether to paint them or just wrap em. First I need the calipre logo copying so they look right when done. IF painting do I simply key them up with sandpaper then panel wipe em & spray em ?

Nearly forgot my “any colour you like” ambient lighting ?

Excellent mods. ???

 

[GatwickGaz]

Any more pics ? ... we want lots of Xpower pics on here not loads of chat !!! ??

This is only my second post, so bear with me...
Pictures are not the best quality but you get the idea hopefully. The demonstrator that I test drove had this orange wrap and after seeing it decided my new Racing Green XPower needed it too.
Hope you like it.

Should have washed it before taking the photos.

Wasn't sure initially but now think it looks great. Where did you get it done and what sort of ££ was it?
