What whole kit? That's my question. The only difference b/w the regular fender flares and the LeMans kit fender flares are the rear ones that with LeMans curve under the non 'is bumper/diffuser while the regular kit has rear flares that just end straight down and are used on the 'is rear bumper/diffuser. Front flares are the same in both cases.

They're talking about the 700+ monster X5 that BMW doesn't sell - not the LeMans flare retrofit kit.

The guy wants to know if anyone has that body kit - not realizing its not available or maybe thinking someone did it with some customizing - or whatever.

Oh I see! I was dying to use my new knowledge on the rear flares and show off! Next time I need to make sure you're not online!

I'm surprised they can't get that complete kit. I bought several of them over the years without much issue. The bodywork wasn't as hard to put on as I originally thought.
