Hopefully BMW has a manual release to pop them open in the case they stick. Overall, I'd certainly put it on my list to get along with an extended warranty .

I believe the active shutter is open by default. Mine on the M550i actually malfunctioned and wouldn't shut. I sent it in for service, it requires removing the entire lower bumper and some other parts to get to it - took two days to repair.
