That's right Luw, on the X6 there is a shutline (partly hidden by the side indicator). However, if you look at the X5, there is none. Absolutely no shutline. It's one piece. Must be expensive, if you scratch the bumper you have to replace the whole plastic thing, bumper and fenders... - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER |

^^ the front bumper is not a whole bumper, it goes a little bit past the lights then stops. So theres no need to make it a seperat panel  |

I am all for plastic body panels, it forces the insurance companies to replace the whole part than send it off to some body shop to beat it back into shape like with metal. |
