Running Boards on Msport?
I have read various posts on this but there doesnt seem to be a clear answer. Can this be done and if so does anyone have any pictures close up of how the boards match the extended arches and instructions how to do it.

I am considering this to try to get around the stone chipping issues on the rear arches.

I remember seeing picture posted of an Msport with running boards. I think BMW doesn't allow the option from the factory because the running boards aren't painted.

I would assume so since whoever has that Msport installed it on theirs. Post pics if you decide to go through with it.

There was reference to fitting instructions which I would like to see. Also I would like to see how they marry up with the wider arches before fitting.
