get used to it... all X5s are going to have it now...

What the ///M needs is a darker color, lowered suspension, and definitely better rims. I would say aero kit too but that's not something they'd make standard even on an M. I personally don't think the rails or running boards do THAT much for the aggressive look. The matching colored trims are boring indeed.
