Will 01 running boards fit an 06?

[adjmcloon]

I have an opportunity to buy running boards off an 01 model. Will they fit my facelifted 06?

[g300d]

Yes they will. Go for it!

Same part # throughout the E53 model years.

Yep! I've been looking for an X to buy them off of for a while now, all the junkyards dont have complete sets and I have been hesitant to drop $950 on them myself from the dealer

just installed a used set on mine. You will need to order 2 bags (about 50) of 51111944537 expanding rivets. When installing the wheel arch trims, install the footboards loosely, then the wheel arch trims. You will need to fine tune the positioning of the footboards so everything comes together nicely, then tighten.

btw: I have a set of all four wheel arch trims for E53's with running boards for sale btw. They are 5/10 in condition, no cracks, tears, etc. You would need the footboards, lower valance and upper trim to complete the set.

send me a pic of the parts you have and a price - I'm in Jersey so you'd have to ship but I'll consider it and price out the other parts I need
