My second order from Tischer/GetBMWParts
The OE trailer hitch and BlueTooth should be here early next week! Any suggestions on either install in my 2004 4.8 with assist? I always wanted the OE trailer hitch on my 3.0 for bikes- bicycles, I should say.

My first order with them was the OE front and rear covers seat, a couple of collapsible trunk boxes and a rubber mat for the back. Not really 'mods' so much as maintenance items in my opinion. Little feet in the rear seat and jeans in the driver's seat are dangerous for that cream interior.

And who knows? If that under ride protection thing will work without too much trouble on the 4.8, it might be NEXT!

Underride protection?
Have you priced that underride thingy? The best price I have found is $1383 +tax.... Let me know if you can find one for less!!!

AHHH HAH! THIS could be my confusion! I commented in another thread that I wasn't sure one would work with the 4.8, but THAT may be the 'decorative skid plate' ! Great question! Off to do some looking around.

skid plate vs underride
Both are viable options for your 4.xis. The skidplate is less expensive at about $180 vs. $1400 for the underride protection. The skidplate will have to be modified slightly (and painted). The underride bolts right on.
