For F85 it was attached differently as you can see here:

If you want just "I wanna be X5M" badge you can go on ebay:

There is no such thing as an 'M Sport' badge.

Is that a real Rolex? AliExpress would be the best bet…

Nice! I think to put the X5M badge to the front you’ll need to get the double slatted grille as well.

This one is from eBay

https://www.ebay.com/itm/31404916848...mis&media=COPY

Aliexpress they show up on and off.

It is your car so you are free to do whatever you want. However, here is my 2 cents worth.

1. If you do want to rebadge the car to X5M, remove all the old badges and get new X5M badges. Right now, your rear badge position is off. Also, if you want to put X5M badge, get the correct X5M side fenders as well. So do the badging right if you can. Also, get the slotted grille. All of this is pretty cheap on eBay/aliexpress.

2. In general, IF you go the X5M badging route, your car will look like a fake. Would you wear a fake Rolex? The X5M is a specific model and it has many differences from the M Sport you have. People who know the real will see yours for being a fake. People who don’t know what an X5M is, would not care any way. Most importantly you would know it is a fake…yours looks like a really nice X5, why try to make it a fake X5M?

Again, my 2 cents worth. There are lots of great M Performance parts that BMW offered with the F15X5- brakes, performance kits, styling options etc etc. including adding CarPlay if you don’t have it via 3rd party…

All the best and happy new year!
