It's black masking tape on the trunk-embeded light part. How can you not see it guys or you are all joking around? Cuz yes, it looks like a frigin jetta otherwise. but the tape is so visible its no way gonna be anything other then what it is, except perhaps different pattern or something.

Oh, and European rules on pedestrian protection are really gonna be finalized by 2010 or 2012 so BMWs design won't be affected much by it at least on this car. It is seen at least to me here, from the fact that the hood line remains as low or visibly as low as on pre facelift car. The rules basically force the hood line to be some inches higher like you see on new Ford Mondeo. But don't think BMW is jumping to adopting to any rules that haven't been finalized.

from what I read, the facelift car will have most changes take place in interior anyway.
