Thanks. My next mods will be the flare arches like you have on your X & the Sun/Wind Deflector. I'm also planing on installing OEM Aluminum Pedals and possibly painting my Calipers Blk with the G2 paint kit.

Nice. How much did the running boards set you back?

They are OEM Aluminum Running Boards purchased from Morristown BMW ($525 delivered). Very easy DIY if you have a rivet gun (post # 32 onwards in this thread

This one at NAPA is meant for plastic rivets and therefore better for wheel arches install.

NAPA rivet gun for platcic rivets
