Front Lip

As i google around i only see a few selection of front lips for the 2014 X5 Msport bumper, im looking for something similar style to the X5M front lip if there is such out there.

Thanks in advance

The lip has to approximate the OEM one, looking for an X5M is futile imo.
Am about to order another one from China. First one damaged due to tape separation.

I dont like the hole/gap in the middle, looking for something similar to the photo.

Only OEM-like lips will fit to that bumper.
You can always go to shop and have them design a custom one for you.
It's not a bad idea because it will reflect your taste.
Personally, I did not like lip shown, but I do understand you not liking the gap in the middle of the OEM lip.
There are other kits out there, but you have to buy bumper too....an overkill imo.

I also am with you 100%. Don't really like the oem one because of the gap in the center. I looked everywhere for the x5m style too with no luck

If that is the case, custom is the only way to go...
