I was actually thinking of going in a different direction to spruce up the bumpers...
My neighbor has a Mercedes GLK and I love the look of the chrome trim on the bumpers. I was thinking of having the silver plastic trim on the front and rear bumpers wrapped in chrome vinyl wrap. My car is Sapphire Metallic Black, so I think the contrast would look great. BTW, I have the "no trim" version of the X1, so my bumpers are similar to the X-line except my front bumper is missing the middle silver section. So I would just be doing this to the lower middle section of the front bumper, and then the whole lower section of the rear bumper.
My only concern is that the lower parts of the bumper sometimes can be hit with road debris and I wonder how the vinyl wrap would hold up. I would hate to spend the money and have it get worn through in a year or two. I've never done vinyl wrap on a car, so I'm not sure how durable it is.
