Anyone knows if it's an easy task to retrofit the front air intake xLine inserts?
Does the whole bumper have to come off or are the inserts snap-on?

Would need to check. You have the base X4 or a MSport?

Should be DIY, have you checked Realoem.com for parts assembly?

Hello,

In my opinion it is a DIY mod. I'll do it on my X4 after delivery in march.

Ordered the parts assembly for the X-Line air intake trim.
I had to get new plastic "fake" air intakes as well as the trim details. The grille intakes seemed to need a bit more effort to put in place so I had my shop to do it. The trim details are snap-on so I'll be able to fix that later by myself (they came un-painted, and instead of buying a can of silver spray, I took them to a shop specialized in foiling).

Here's the result. Foiled trim snapped in place.

Hello,

I havé received my trim for XLine retrofit today, so i have a few questions :

- so what did you do about the painting ?
- did you change the black grill behind the trims ?

Thanks

- I had the trim foiled, not painted.
- Yes! They are completely different. They have the tabs and notches needed to be able to fasten/snap-on the trim.

Ok, thank you for your answer.

Do you plan to add also the center big trim from X Line ?

No, not now.
