I also highly, highly recommend getting a silent pin for pinning the hitch to the receiver for anyone who tows - locking that up reduces all the audible clunking you otherwise getting when accelerating and braking, which gets really annoying and unsettling in an SUV, if you're used to towing with a truck.

Overall been very happy with the Curt, feel it's the best overall design for function and price/quality.

Can you post pics of your hitch? I also have an M Sport so I'm interested in how it looks. Did you have to cut any of the M Sport bumper for the Curt?
