Is the Bumper Cut with the Factory Hitch ?

[Gilles]

I would like to see the X5 rear bumper with the Factory Hitch
(not Upgraded) .

How is the Bumper ? Is it Cut ?
Does it look nice when you remove the hitch ?
Please send some pics ...
Thx

Oops!
My mistake

Yep...bumper needs to be cut with the hitch. There is no Factory option...dealer installed. Mine looks pretty good.

There is a Factotory option in Europe. It 's the option Code 235. (about $1200).

Denalio, do you have any pics of yours with the dealer installed hitch?

By the way, thanks for the pics you posted, I was on the fence with the Sapphire Black and Monaco Blue, hadn't seen any good pics of the blue but I love the color.

Thanks! I was hoping they hid it rather than left it cut out, like Range Rover does with the Sport..... But that's not too bad.
