A brief explanation.

The M2 test mules (temporary) feature rectangular rear reflectors. It was pointed out that the same type of reflectors also featured on the 2015 X5M and X6M test mules, at similar spots. As we know, the production versions of the 2015 X5M and X6M feature rear reflectors inside the vertical 'side vents'. Hence, the assumption came into play that the M2 might get vertical reflectors too. Though personal I would prefer no vertical reflectors for the M2. We may even settle for black plastic inserts à la 1M, should the rear bumper vents serve no other purpose than widening the rear bumper (aesthetics).

So your comment could be good news.
