Nice one 

Hi, Simon H
When I bought my car there was already stone chips and road rash on bottom of sills and rear wheel arches, but since I fitted mud flaps they haven't got any worse

Apologies for an old post revival, but just bought a nearly new white x5 40d msport with the msport plus kit and seem to spend my life cleaning it! Main concern is damage to the paintwork especially duri g the gritting season.
Also plan to tow the caravan which no doubt will also get filthy and damaged by stones etc off the wheels.

Also been told by the dealer that the BMW mudguards don't fit properly, but it appears they do, so would appreciate if you could post the relavent part numbers, so i can fit a set.

Thanks

I get that they make a difference in the winter....... but they look shite all year round.

My newly painted rear arches especially passenger one had quite a bit of minor gravel rash after just 1000 mikes before I had time to get plastic film fitted so front mudflaps sound a good idea and they don't look too bad on a black car.
