X5 Facelift Pics and updates( w/ Leaked Official pics)

The conspiracy theorist in me says that the BMW design folks send these guys out in preproduction models with the intention of getting photographed, and then troll the forums for unbiased feedback on proposed styling cues. I say this because I hope they do something about the fog light placement! Not that I can't live with it, but I would rather just not have fog lights than have those cutouts in the middle of an otherwise smooth shape.

you can't have it all where would you put it? Literally haha id rather have a slim strip of small leds ala merc/audi even tho its a little me too. I feel it wouldn't disrupt the styling the way the singular ones do. If your listening bmw designers give me new interior/exterior color selections and I may just ignore the fogs!

Nope. Once we see a car on the road in camo, the styling concept was probably finished a long time prior, and the word 'concept' in German is completely different than in English. It means written in stone, finished.
