Expert Reply:

The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75600 for your 2017 BMW X5 does not require any trimming based on the bumper as shown in the attached video. This hitch is a fit for many model years and some of them require trimming of that fascia. I've attached a photo to show you the trimming needed on some model years.

In most cases the installation from a dealer is the same they just have to cover their overhead costs. I am not familiar enough with a different procedure or product from BMW, so I don't know if they have a replacement piece or not, but you see all that is required with this Draw-Tite installation in the attached video.
