BMW X5M Touch Up Paint (13 OEM Colors)

### The Color Breakdown

BMW really went for it with the X5M, recording 13 distinct flavors that range from "sensible German CEO" to "I definitely track my SUV." You'll find everything from the classic Alpinweiss III and stealthy Carbonschwarz to the absolutely electric Isle of Man Green Metallic and Marina Bay Blue. Whether you're rocking the deep, wine-like Ametrin Metallic or the flat-out moody Dravite Grey, these colors are designed to turn heads-and that means every little chip stands out like a sore thumb.

What to Watch For

Now, the X5M has some muscles, but its skin can be a bit sensitive. Keep a close eye on the leading edge of the roof right above the windshield; because of how the gasket sits, that area is prone to tiny flakes if a rock catches it just right. Those wide fenders and beefy tires also love to kick up "road rash" along the lower doors. To find your specific color match, pop the driver's door and look for a black sticker on the pillar-your code is usually a three-digit number (like 475 for Black Sapphire) located near the bottom. If it's not there, check the strut towers under the hood.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since most of these BMW shades-especially Tansanite Blue or Mineral White-rely on heavy pearl and metallic flakes to get that deep glow, you need to be the "Bottle Boss." Shake your touch-up pen or bottle for a full 60 seconds (set a timer!) to wake up those metallic particles. When you apply it, don't try to fill the whole chip in one go. Think of it like painting a tiny fingernail: two or three thin dabs are much better than one big, gloopy mountain. If you're working with a "Frozen" (matte) finish, remember that less is more-patience is your best friend to keep that stealthy look consistent.
