Welcome to the family of 4.8is owners. There are a few of V8 owners in the area. Many meet up at either at Katie's in Great Falls on Saturday early mornings or at Kohl's at Fair Lakes. I am live and work in N. Arlington if you are ever in the area stop by for coffee and a chat about our favorite brand of vehicles. Most weekends you can find a few of us "bending a wrench" or two on maintenance or updates, so watching & learning is always great male bonding.
There is a TON of info in the Forum, just browse through the Articles tab at the top of the site for lots of DIY tips and tricks.
Do you plan on a DIY path for repairs or a pay as you go path with a dealer or BMW Indy?
I think all the 4.8is have the flares front and rear as part of the package.
