Hello, newbie with x5 e53

Hi there, I have been lurking around this forum for a while, thought I better post up a hello, especially since I need help now. My x5 has been owned by a member previously on this forum, not sure if they are still around though.

My x5 is a 2002 4.4 sport in sliver with body coloured bumpers not sure if that is a factory done thing or if somebody has sprayed them.  I have owned it since January, and its currently now on 138,000.

The other thing I am confused about is at the top of my windscreen just below the rain sensor i have a sticker which has the bmw mini logo and and a number underneath, does anyone know what that is for?? I will shortly be posting up about my airbag light woes :( so please take a look and help if you can.

Pics might be useful.

Bumpers should be colour codes but under aprons not. Yours should be black plastic between exhausts and under front number plate.  A few have been modified and colour coded. The aero pack was colour coded if fitted - car wil be obviously different I so equipped

No idea re sticker / maybe sticker is something's to do with dealer supply paint\trim protection. Never seen similar on a Bmw myself.

:hi:

Get some pics up of the bumpers but as AW8 says - black plastic trim on the lower half.
