No rear door sills on 2016 X3

I just picked up my 2016 X3 with M Sport. I noticed that there weren't any rear door sill protectors. I checked some pictures from a dealers website and noticed that the rears were also missing on other 2016 X3's. However, the 2015's looked to have the rear door sills.

So a question for any 2016 owners... Do you have rear door sill protectors or not?

I'm waiting for my X3 MSport to come in. Can someone post a picture of the 2015 and 2016 showing the missing part being referred to? Can a 2015 rear door sill fit on a 2016 X3?

It should fit if you get a replacement part out of the BMW parts bin.

Are you guys talking about the shiny metal piece when you open the door? The one with the M for the front doors?

My 2015 M sport only has the "M" door sills in the front. The rear door sills are shorter in length with no logo.
