I am a first time poster. I searched but could not find a thread with information about this topic. I am interested in a 2024 (or 2025 since it seems SOP is Apr 2024) X5 xDrive40i with Sport design. Basically a "base" model. This appears to be available only with unpainted black plastic wheel arch trim and side skirt. It appears that the M Sport design upgrades the wheel arch trim and side skirt to smooth painted trim matching the exterior paint. I do not want the M Sport design because all other exterior trim goes from Aluminum to Black. This is a popular look but I much prefer the Aluminum around windows and roof rails. Is there a way to order the smooth painted wheel arch trim and side skirt with the "base" model (X5 xDrive40i without M Sport)? If not, is there a way to replace the unpainted black plastic wheel arch trim and side skirt with smooth painted trim? Thanks in advance for your help.

You should be able to order the parts and get them painted and installed, I’m just not sure where you could order them from at this point. GetBMWParts.com doesn’t have those parts for 2024 models listed yet. You could always go to your local BMW parts counter and see if they can pull up the part numbers and put an order in for them.
