I was driving my wife's 2003 X5 3.0i today and it was making a whistling noise from the front (not very loud but it made me think the hood may not be latched). When I got home and went to check the hood I found that one of the grill kidneys was completely gone.

Now I'm going to look online for a new pair so that the match

I think I'm going to go with the all silver kidneys vs the OE which are silver around the outside and black on the verticals.

This is one decision that I didn't know I'd be making today when I woke up this morning.

Dangit... I've been scouring CL from here to Dallas looking for an X5 with that aero kit because of you TMV. LOL, my wife is not happy.

The roundel isn't cheap... just replaced mine late last year. ~$32 from the dealer. You can buy cheap knock-offs, but they aren't as nice/durable.
