Is the X5M bumper vs X5 M Sport bumpers identical?
Just asking if the X5M 2016 Front Bumper the same as the 2016 X5 M Sport bumper bumper.
The bottom side grills on the X5M fit the X5 M sport bumper? Does anyone know this answer? |

Same as in respect to the bumper fitting? Possibly since there was someone who retrofitted a X5M front and rear bumpers to a F15 X5.

Mounting points are the same. But lower grills opening are different.
The only grill that are the same is the kidney grill.

^^ This...very very different. The M50D bumper/lower grilles are the same, is that what you mean?

They look different but it's hard to tell in photos. For me I can easily tell my M4 from a 435 M sport but on the X5s the differences are more subtle. I wanted to know if the lower grills would fit from the X5M but now I know my answer.

Maybe it's a sign to just get a X5M and be at the gas station every other day... Thanks guys for all the help. I was getting confused looking at the X5 5.0M and such too.

To the OP: it's not a 5.0

Hey folks, I hate to beat a dead horse but I am about to pull the trigger on actually purchasing all of the parts to do this conversion (well the insurance company is about to buy the parts). I see 3-4 people above confirmed that you CAN put a 2015 F85 X5M bumper on a 2014 F15 X5 M Sport without any modifications. IE: you buy all of the correct parts and it will mount up fine. Can anyone confirm they have done this or know for sure it works?

Search this forum...there's another thread on here about this. Someone was doing this - the upper portion mounted fine, the lower needed some extra hardware/mount supports found on the X5M...if I am recalling correctly. But it did fit...get w/ your dealer and look at the parts breakdown/expanded view of the X5M and your X5...you'll see the different parts required.

Now you need the Side Mirror Retrofit to X5M style.

Ben has been my X5 life coach for the past 6 months or so, I can't tell you how helpful it's been having so many SME's on modding these cars around.
