I did not have running boards on my '07 3.0si. I had them on my '08 4.8i and have them again on my '11 35d. The running boards look GREAT, but they are a pain in the ass. It is near impossible to not rub my pants against them when exiting the X5. They just stick out SO much. I would get them again, just for pure aesthetics, but they are not useful or practical IMO.
