Ok checked things out
1 Skidplate seams to be an acc only to USA X5¨
2 Facelift cars dont have this as a acc

Question:
Will it still mount on a facelift car ?

Facelifted X5 w/ skid plate. Years '99-'06 can be fitted with the accessory:

Yes, it appears the skid plate is available in the USA only. However you can purchase one right now from bavarian-auto on Ebay for $199 usd and they offer international shipping (just email them for cost). Now you have no excuse... time to join the skid plate club! :thumbup:

One excuse so far, it wil cost me arm and a leg to get it here:)
$199 for skid $99 for postage 15% cusoms fee $45 and tax 25% $85 will total $428 and i still have to have it painted....
Will most likely get one nex time i am in the states :) in other words soon
