I think it uses the standard jack pads for most bmws. I just searched amazon and there are a ton of options. They don't necessarily state they are compatible with the f90, but they are the same size as the ones used on all modern bmws.

Here's the one I bought for my F10. Have not looked yet to see if it fits the F90 but can test fit tonight when I get home. I like this one because it has the rubber nubbins to hold it in place while you position the jack.

These are cheaper, but lack the nubbins:

I saw those metal ones but bought these for my car. I feel like its easier on the car. Haven't used them yet though.

Why do you want to get an aftermarket jack pad to be used against the stock jack pad?

I should've been more clear. I'm looking for aluminum or rubber jack pads that go on the jack and fit in the jack points under the car.

I understand it.
I bought it too a few years back and still confused why it is needed??
The plastic OEM Jack Pad is replaceable.
Using the Aluminum or rubber jackpad is not any different than using your floor jack directly to the OEM Plactic Jack Pad.
Even BMW Dealerships doesn't use the aftermarket jackpads, because it will probably waste them 15 minutes just to align all 4 corner aftermarket jackpads to the lift pad.

Because I don't want my jack points to look like this. The BMW dealership I bought my car at does use them.

I also got you on that.

That is happened due to improper positioning of floor jack.
It won't happened if you properly position the floor jack even without the jack pad.
And, you know that OEM jack pad is replaceable, right?

But, any aftermarket jack pad will work. Just find the cheapest, that's what I did and didn't even use it.
Or just use a hockey pug or 2x4.

Here what I found on Amazon.

The jack pad I referenced fits the F90. I'm pretty sure I've had the jack pad since my E60 M5, so it's worked on the last three generations. No need to change the design.

Late to this thread...I agree with the hockey puck. My buddy showed me how to improvise the puck so it fits securely when jacking up the car.
