This wasn’t just a second BMW X7 build — it felt like coming back to friends

This is a real owner story about a BMW X7 customized with a full body kit. The owner shares why he returned to LARTE Design for a second project, how the installation experience went, and what daily driving feels like after customization.

She lives in Romania and uses her BMW X7 in everyday conditions. For him, this project represents owning a customized BMW again and building on a positive long-term ownership experience with the same team.

My first LARTE project was a Mercedes GLS 63, three years ago.

I had found them online — no big story, just a curious guy from Krasnoyarsk who liked the design and picked up the phone.

What I didn’t expect was how quickly things clicked. It wasn’t just a transaction. It felt like I was building a car with people who actually cared.

Fast forward three years, I sold the GLS and ordered a brand-new BMW X7 in black. And before the car even arrived, I knew exactly what I wanted: a full LARTE body kit — just like last time. So I did what anyone would do after a great experience:

I called the same team again!

Coming back to LARTE Design felt natural after my first project. From an ownership perspective, I already trusted their approach, communication, and attention to detail. Choosing a BMW X7 body kit from the same team felt like continuing a relationship rather than starting from scratch. The confidence built during my first project played a decisive role in choosing LARTE again for this customization.

This time, I wanted everything to be sleek — no carbon, no contrast. Just a clean, full-body kit painted to match the car, with forged wheels as the finishing touch. We agreed on the full setup quickly. The tone was simple: “You know my style. Let’s make it clean. Let’s make it sharp.”

And just like last time, they overdelivered. Even before my X7 made it to Romania, the team had already finished the entire kit — ahead of schedule. We were just waiting on the car.

Once it arrived, the parts were delivered, installation was smooth, and the result? Exactly what I pictured.

After the body kit installation, everything came together exactly as planned. Once the body kit was installed, my BMW X7 felt cohesive and factory-like. A few months after the install, nothing changed in terms of usability or comfort. Looking back, the installation experience proved that living with a custom body kit in everyday use is practical and reliable, even long after the initial excitement fades.

Driving a custom BMW X7 daily feels noticeably different from stock. The SUV feels more premium and feels more refined in everyday conditions. From a practical standpoint, the everyday driving experience remains calm and comfortable. Using a customized BMW over time reinforces the sense of confidence and satisfaction that comes with thoughtful customization.

Several months after installing the body kit, my BMW X7 body kit still feels relevant and balanced. The design holds up well in real-world use, and the overall look hasn’t lost its impact over time. Looking back, this BMW X7 body kit feels like a long-term decision rather than a temporary styling upgrade.

In this business, people often say: “Let the result speak.” And yes — the black-on-black X7 with the LARTE kit speaks volumes. But what made me come back wasn’t just the visuals.

It was how I was treated the first time. It was the openness, the transparency, and the friendship that naturally formed — no scripts, no pressure, just mutual respect. That’s why I reached out again. That’s why I trusted them with my new car.

And that’s why we still stay in touch — not because I need anything, but because good people are rare, and they deserve to be remembered!
