ordered (non OEM) double slat grill and yanked out the original ones. I didn't care about breaking clips when pulling out.. but if you spent some more time than a few minutes, you can reach and lift the clips from the front with a screwdriver (without losening the bumper or any other screw or even without opening the hood) and click/pull the grill out of it without breaking anything.

Sorry to ruin your day.
But you got the old version, not 1:1 design to X5M/X6M version.

New f15 owner here so sorry for questions that have probably been answer. Are F15 and f16 kidney grilles interchangeable ? I see IND has both f85/f86 gloss black with NV but the f85 is $150 more. Or is there Any chance a glass black aftermarket grille has been made to house the NV?

Try these if you want to save some money. Very hard to find ones in all black with NV.

Also, don't yank the old grille, you will break the $6K NV camera, which is attached to both the body of X5 as well as the grille.

Although I have the oem ones since I actually wanted some chrome for contrast, yours turned out nice and for a great price.

thanks jch1511 for posting these!

aswob did you get the gloss or matte? I've got an imperial blue metallic, undecided on which set.
