3M Protection on non M?
 

I'm taking delivery on my 50i in a week and wanted to know if I need to do the 3M in front or sides? I know the M package needs it but any areas on the regular X5 that need to be protected? how easily does the front bumper chip?

Definitely a must no matter if a M-Sport or not. You don't need it on the sides as the non M-Sport has the black moldings but definitely the front (mine on the front goes to about foot or so of front hood, fenders, etc, also headlights and front side mirrors).
