UK Pricing for X5 Skid Plate Paint/Fitting
Skid Plate @ $199 Shipping @ $70 Tax/Duties @ $54 / £27 TOTAL: $323 / £165 approx Now the interesting bit, I went to my local BMW approved dealer and they quoted me £346.63 inc vat for spraying and fitting  They tried to justify the cost by claiming the bumper needed to be removed in order for them to fit the skid plate, strange as the instructions that come with it didn't state that. Basically it has 7 screw fittings, 4 of which are at the rear of the plate and use fitments that are already in place on the bumper. The 3 front screws need drilling but once the rears are in place it looks pretty straight forward. Anyway with that I went to a recommended body shop and they are spraying and fitting it on Saturday for £80, bargain  If anyone wants details on where I bought it PM me. My X5 is Carbon Black and the skid plate is being sprayed Titan to match my grills. I'll post pics once its fitted

Had the Skid plate fitted over the weekend. Apologies for the quality of the pics, they were taken on my phone camera.
The skid plate has been painted Titan II, the same colour as my Titan Grills

http://search.ebay.com/search/search...late&category0= I bought mine from ebay seller called bavarian-auto but he hasn't got a skid plates listed at the moment, I'd drop him a message to get a price and compare it against the other sellers. http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZbavarian-auto Good luck, one of the best mods in my opinion!
