So my car finally got delivered, and here is a few pictures of a schyzofrenic X5.

If you look closely, you will see that on the driver side, the chrome bar of the m50d is present on the bumper. On the other side it is not (standard delivery)

So it is possible to put the chrome strips on an M bumper, and IMO it looks great, so I will have it adapted on both sides ( the bumper needs to be removed for this)

One problem : the M50d bumper is different from all others and has a little slot on the side to fix the strip...which my bumper doesn't have. On the chrome strip there is notch for this. We decided to cut the notch off and it still holds fine. On the detailed picture you can see 2 strips, one with the notch, the other with the notch removed.

Sorry for the bad quality of pictures...iphones are not the best for close-up shots
