adding 4.8 fender lip to 2001 4.4

[e36]

Hey guys,

I tried searching but everything is kind of scattered and most of these conversions are done on facelifted X5s.

I understand i need to buy front fender lips, 2 rears (4 total 2 each side), and the 4.8 rear diffuser.

Is this accurate? Will it be alot of trouble to do this install?

Not sure exactially what you mean? any better details or pics?

I'm sorry. The i'm talkin about the fender well extensions . for 4.4, the black rubber go straight down..4.8 goes sideways giving the really wide, mean look.

i think you are talking about fender flares?? im pretty sure they fit any X5 model...i think you just need to specify wether or not u have runningboards

[e36]

Right..

So i want to add fender flares AND running boards to my 2001 4.4

please advise

Yeah the arch extensions will fit all X5's, however I beliver you have to have the running boards also to have them on the front.
