Most automakers just show sketches. Others prefer a staggered shot by shot reveal over a few months. BMW, it seems, likes to show the real thing before anything else. The same thing happened with the new 7 Series bumper that pitched up on eBay less than three months before its official launch.

This time a bumper said to be from the 2010 5 Series is out there. Indications are also that it could be from the Progressive Activity Sedan (PAS) which is based on the 5 Series anyway. Nevertheless, this is a BMW that has not been shown to the general public yet. Wide in appearance, the bumper shows the BMW emblem to be integrated into it. And while trademark kidneys are of reasonable size and not as pronounced as in the 7, design shape is quite similar to the big sedan's front bumper.

the front kidney design is not as wild as the new 7-series. Also, if compared to the concept X1, the lines are softer than the current CS inspired features. Well, I like it this way, because the nose is not as OUTSTANDING as others.

NOTE : Seems to me that the bumper design is to be more like a all new facelifted 5-series only with the bumper cut line behind the kidney instead of on it only!

Oh no, don't tell me this is gonna have the 'knocked-in-face' look the X1 and 7 series do.

Teasing with reduced size of "nostrils" put me say that teasing with holes in body could be an invention not just only among car makers you know.
