Re: Free- X5 e70 Msport Mudflaps
Check with BMW about the fittings as they were previously only available with the mud flap set! >:(
I have one broken plastic rivet and have not been able to source one via BMW......which is really annoying as well as small minded!

If you do find the fitting kit part numbers can you let me know too so I can have another ‘deep & meaningful’ with my local Parts Dept.....

Fitting instructions as per link
https://www.bavauto.com/media/imports/i ... INS398.pdf
Several screw clips will have been left in the arch liners after removal, the rear bumper panel is trimmed to fit!
A personal taste, however I prefer the look with mudflaps whilst ordinarily hating mud flaps, I fitted mine.
I think they give the illusion of lowering and fatten out the rear nicely.
There is the option of colour coding the flaps, as they’re rigid I don’t foresee problems with the paint cracking as long as the prep is done ......
