Since you have no model/model year/build date info listed or given...I'll refer you back to post #2 which gives suggestions on how to look up parts in an online part database.

The area below the headlights is different depending on your model year/build date...so you could conceivably get the wrong part number depending on who gives you a part br.

Here are some other excellent oline art databases that allow you to look up part nbrs & diagrams based on your VIN...or you can search generically by selecting certain criteria...or search using the BMW 11 digit part nbr which will reveal cross reference info (other BMW models that may use the same part...as well as build date range the part was used):
1. http://bmwfans.info/parts-catalog/
2. RealOEM.com - Select Your BMW Model
If I were to go out on a ledge and assume you have a pre-facelift e53 X5 and you're asking about the scalloped pieces of trim below the headlights...I would suggest to see items #3 & #4 in the diagram and link to part number index below...where you will see that you can get painted or non-painted:
