BMW F97 X3M LCI Front Package Bonnet Bumper Headlight 475
S58 Performance | Laserlight / Adaptive LED | 2022–2024
This front-end package is specifically for the F97 X3M LCI (facelift) finished in Black Sapphire Metallic (475). Unlike the standard G01 X3, the X3M features wider wheel arches, a specific S58-cooling module, and the most aggressive bumper in the X3 lineup. Finding this in factory-paint 475 is a major win, as it is one of BMW’s most popular metallic blacks, known for its deep “glassy” finish. BMW F97 X3M LCI Front Package Bonnet Bumper Headlight 475

The LCI Design Shift (F97 Specific)
-
The “Ikon” Evolution: The LCI update introduced much slimmer headlights. For the X3M, the Laserlight option is the flagship, offering up to 600 meters of range. These units feature blue accents that look particularly striking against the Black Sapphire (475) paint.
-
Unified Grille: The kidney grilles are now joined by a single central bar and are significantly larger than the pre-LCI versions.
-
Bumper Intakes: The LCI X3M bumper features sharper, more vertical side air curtains and a revised lower lip that is much more angular than the 2019-2021 models.
Technical Specifics & Retrofit Notes
Critical for 2019–2021 Owners:
To upgrade a Pre-LCI X3M to the LCI look:
Headlight & Bumper Compatibility: The LCI headlights have a different lower curvature. You must swap the Bumper, Grille, and Headlights as a set.
X3M Fenders: The F97 X3M uses wider fenders than the standard G01 X3. If you are converting a standard X3 to an X3M look, you will need the M-specific wheel arch liners and side skirts to match the fender width.
Cooling Layout: The S58 engine has a complex 3-radiator setup in the front. Ensure the package includes the horizontal oil cooler which sits at the very bottom—it’s the most common part damaged in front-end impacts.
