What's that part of the bumper called?
 

OK, I am new to forums, posting, and all that, so if I am in the wrong place, I apologize.

My question is probably going to sound stupid, but I just don't know.

What is the part of the front bumper, at the bottom where the smaller openings are (no, not the main Kidney grille).

The reason is that I had seen some chrome inserts for them, but I don't know what it is called to search for them. So if someone has seen these pieces, I'd appreciate that info too.

BTW, this is a great forum, tons of awesome info. This forum is the reason I chose my X5 in the first place. (I read about how awesome they were, and had to get one!)

again, thanks in advance

Those net things in bumper are called grids. Items 9 and 10 in pic below.

chrome is whack. maybe some chrome rims but what is with all these chrome taillight pieces and the foglight trim. IMO its just plain wrong

JST2878,

I agree, I can't stand all the chrome that most people put on their cars, that's why I liked the subtle little bit of chrome on the bottom of the bumper. A little goes a long way.

thanks

Troy,

What part of Oklahoma re you from?

Dan

Just moved to Oklahoma City from Atlanta. Grew up here, was in ATL for 13 years.

You out this way?

I grew up in OKC, left for Europe for 7 years, and came back a few years ago. Lets see some specs on your X5 :beerchug: !

Dan

It's an 02 4.4i, with Sport and Premium packages. It has the cool 'Y spoke' 19 inch wheels (I don't know the correct name for them). Silver with light grey interior.

I haven't done any mods to it yet, can't figure out what to do first. Suggestions? I am more into performance than exterior crap and lights, etc.
