That wouldn't stop a build up of snow I guess but should allow water to drain.

X5M badge on an M50i seems OK to me, since you can technically tune the engine to get close to the M. On a 40i, especially if you leave the 40i badges in there seems like an identity crisis.

I agree. On my X7 (yes I realize this the X5 forum) I paid extra for the m sport package, which has "M"s on the steering wheel, side sills, wheels, and then I paid for "M" sport brakes too with "M"s there too. And we got the dynamic handling package. I would have no problem with another "M" somewhere. I wouldn't be trying to "fool" anyone....not that there is anyone to fool anyway. If you like the addition, enjoy it.

That said, while one can certainly tune the M50i's N63 horsepower up, the X5M's S63 is significantly different including the entire oil & cooling system, engine & transmission mounts, etc. Whether that's useful But then again, on 50% of BMWNA's USA website, the M50i and X5M are grouped together as both M cars versus the other 50% where they're not. Gawddammit, is someone writing all this shit down?

I don't have a trim removal tool...trying to figure out the best way to get them off. I don't have to worry about scratches as I just had my car PPF'd...
Or maybe just run to an auto parts store...lol

What about that "X5M" sticker? Would like to know if it comes off easily and what it looks like underneath. I plan to do this to my M50i, but don't plan on leaving the "X5M" on.

Can you share a picture post-removal? Would love to get an idea of what it looks like. Where did you get your vents from?

Can you post a side shot of your vehicle with these vents installed? I'm considering getting these and would love a bigger view / perspective. Thanks. |

I had these side vent stickers made by an etsy seller late last year, but I had set them aside for the winter months. With the sudden arrival of warm weather around these parts, I finally felt motivated to do the vent cover swap after getting my summer wheels mounted for the first time.
It's a "chrome vinyl with a layer of resin" dome sticker similar to what's on the M wheels. The colors are slightly muted, but overall I think it looks pretty good. I really like how it fills in that space and I don't have that sense of "something is missing" when I look at the covers. I was initially on the fence about how this might look once I got them mounted, but I think I'll run with them for now...
