It's a pity... those details would have made the X1 even better (not that I'm complaining... the way the car handles makes us forget about this stuff but... maybe something BMW should consider this kind of stuff in the future.)
They did that in the first couple years of the X3. We had a 2005 X3 and the plastics were decidedly inferior to the ones on our 2008 X3. I suspect that the X1 will get better materials in later model years.
