I'd get after those.

The prices from the main dealer will make your face melt.

Don't go cheap route... Latvian stuff is ok for vw golf but no for x5.. Get body kit from 4.6 or 4.8,  its same. Front bumper must be from 4.8. I got that one for £170.    i've been searching for geniune parts for a year.  Give yourself time...

Cheers for the link bud, but I'm not sure if these are exactly what I'm looking for?  I cant see the piece that fits on the rear bumper which runs upto the rear lip?  Thats's pretty much the reason I want the arches, and why I'm not interested in the Le Mans style ones

Bmw call that piece the 'mudboard' FYI. Probably the cheapest part of the whole kit, only $145 from ECS TUNING.

Cheers bud will look at it. Tbh it's the worst part of the copy kit

I bought damaged rear bumper just to get that part...

Just had a look. I don't think the mud board is the part I need but I found the rear bumper trim which I think is correct 51127046919 it's still gonna be $300 plus shipping and taxes. Just too much imho. I'm prepared to play the waiting game on ebay
