Pre-pollen season shots!

Not sure if I should lower it or keep it factory... trade-offs either way

All preference.
But, I will lower it. At least 1" and change the kidney grill, add M50d style lower grill trim.

No covering up anything... Just sprayed. I've done it for the last 7 months without any problems...

I would be so paranoid of getting water into the electrics I would go around putting all these connectors in condoms first before power spraying

Looks great. No lowering please. Would add those X6 grills ciranium gray if they fit the X5. Those would perfectly mach your wheels and color of your car plus they are new design.
