Yea I don't exactly see the difference either....

I never understood the concept of non-painted bumpers. Our bumpers on the X5 are partially unpainted too.....whyyy???

The old Mercedes ML SUVs used to look this way too when they first came out....

The Audi A4s looked like this just a mere two years ago.....whyyy?

Even the BMW E36 3-series used un-painted, grey bumpers at one time...

it's always a bad decision that most car companies end up changing....so BMW needs to work on it for the next-gen X vehicles.

Maybe they do it so that sales of their aero-kits for both vehicles (x5 and x3) will increase, I know I wouldn't buy an X3 unless I had the aero kit on it. It's too much plastic for my taste
