Hey guys,

Just found the first picture of the new M painted bumper kit for the X3. Check it out at this link:

Now, THAT looks sharp!

Is this an optional kit or is this the new look of the X3 for the upcoming model?

Rory,

I'm not sure. That's one of the reasons I posted here on the forum.

I found it kind of odd that the web site listed this picture with the press release for the E90 X-Drive availability.

Anyway, I love the way this package looks. It's far better than even the current aerodynamics kit I was considering.

If anyone else has any info on this, please share it.

According to the information from the FORUMS on the internet, this is the "M-Sport Package" from BMW, it's suppose to be an option for cosmetics only... "M" badges on Steering Wheel, Shift Knob and Rims.... However, I still have not seen and "official" information on this from BMW.

Yes, it is one of the package called M-Sport package, no change on engine.. My salesman didnt know how much but he said it wont be cheaper than aero kit.

I didn't expect anything with M-badges on the wheels and interior elements to be cheaper than the current aero kit, but it's unfortunate it doesn't come with any engine enhancements.
