Is this the same E70 Aero Kit ?

I hear prices from $2,500 to $4,000 on this forum for E70 aero kits. Isn't it the aerokit listed at the link below? Why the significant price difference for just paint/installation? http://kellybmw.oemdealer.com/x5-aer...1880_19635.php

I saw an E70 with the aero kit last weekend and it does make it look better. It was a space grey E70.

Anybody know if the flared fenders and wheel arches are the same thing?

I saw a 3.0 in a parking garage when I left work yesterday and you were right, the 3.0 (not sure if there's a difference between 3.0 and 3.0si as far as this is concerned) has the black plastic wheel arches going straight down, not flared out like the 4.8i and like the aero kit suggests. The fenders are not any different, that is sheet metal and will not change from the aero kit, it's part of the rear quarter panel. The "flared fenders" that the kit refers to must be the plastic arches that are flared out instead of flat.

That would be great, thanks! I'm trying to decide if I really need a tow hitch. If not, I may go with the aero kit (can't have hitch with the kit..).

Not sure why there is a huge gap in prices. Just spoke with my sales guy in Louisville and here are quotes on a few items:

Aero Kit* (painted, mounted, tax, etc. ) Total $1,794.17
*Only charging me $956.00 for the aero-kit

Dealer Installed IPOD 6FL Total $456.30
Wheel Flares (Front/Rear, install, etc.) Total $445.47

What do you guys think?
