Aaron - Looks like LeMansX5 has already answered your question. He is missing one piece of the lower flare for the rear bumper (right) and it is 51-12-7-046-920. Also, as he has stated, I don't know how these 2 pieces fit onto the rear bumper support. I suspect that they are mounted the same way as the upper flares (by means of grooves and catches) which can be done with a dremel tool. You might want to check with the local BMW parts counter before ordering it.

Good luck Aaron.

Yes. In summary, if you want the alum running boards and the 4.6/4.8is wider fender flare look, you need 4 pieces of fender flares for the REAR (2 uppers, 2 lowers). And if you want it to look like LeMansX5's, you will also need the 2 front fender flares. With these flares, it's going to cost you a lot more, probably about double the cost of the alum r/b kit itself.
