Helpful Expert Reply:
The Stealth part # SH98VR that you referenced is the hitch opening and trailer wiring add-on for the Stealth hitch # SH56VR that fits your 2016 BMW X5 which we also carry as a complete kit with part # SH52VR. This does not require trimming or cutting of the bumper fascia but the hitch body/tube does replace the rear bumper beam of the vehicle.
