I don't think the side skirts really changed, but the 2001's got body-colored instead of black plastic inserts in the front and rear bumpers, as well as along the "bump strips" on the sides of the car. The 2001 7-Series got body-colored rocker panels (side skirts) where there had been black plastic ones on the 1995-2000 versions.
I'm really not a fan of the black plastic stuff on any car. My 1990 Legend is white, and the black plastic stuff looks OK when it's shiny, but generally detracts from the appearance of the car. The redesigned 1991 and 1992 Legends retained the plastic inserts, but around 1993 Acura went to body-colored ones. BMW apparently didn't get the idea until 2001.
