doesn't the 50i have two filter elements like the x5m? if so, you might check with K&N filters... not saying they are the best, but they are available... I don't have a 50i or M, so I can't comment on how you guys are suppose to change your filters, but it's pretty easy on the 35i, only 1 filter to change, and you need torx bits to open the airbox...
YOu have to lift up the engine cover (there is nothing securing it (ie no screws) THen you have two box's like the above picture Looks to me like this is where your air filter elements are, and you have about 6 torx screws on each box to unscrew to get to the filters (i don't know what size they are)
