Do you have a Left or Right hand drive? I wanted to order the same from Bimmian, but their site says it's for Left hand drive only.

Do you know if yours can fit on the right front door?

Nope- The door handle trim is all side-specific. There must be a EU supplier who'd carry the other configuration, though. Anyone out that way found one?

Bimmian does not have the color for my X5 as well. I ordered the part # from my dealer and had the local body shop paint it for me for $25. They did a good job of painting. You can do the same if you do not find. Check the part # at www.realoem.com

The X3 is my daily driver. I have a 1 and 1/2 mile commute to work and she is kept in the garage unlocked. I actually took the whole door panel off because I was not aware of that small hole.
