Yes, the running boards come with replacement wheel arches (front and rear), as they are required for a nice flush fit to the running boards. But the arches that come in the kit are not the flared-out version, like you have on the back of your 4.8 (but rather the standard version, as equipped on the 3.0/4.4). However, BMW also sells the flared arches - specifically designed to fit with the running boards - that will match what's on your 4.8 now.
If you do a forum search on running boards and flared wheel arches, I'm sure you'll find a few threads that have the exact part #'s listed...
