Some new pics of wheels and wheel arches advice
I purchased the replica wheel arches off ebay and have a few questions: should I install them myself or am I better off getting them professionally done? Also, what is a fair price to have them professionally installed? Should I just have the rears installed? I do realize that the rear tire sticks out a little farther than the arch but the front tires seem flush already with the stock arches. I apologize for the pics off my phone and I didn't get a chance to get it all washed up. I will take some better pictures later. Let me know what you guys think or any advice that you think would make it better. Thanks guys! |

The wheel arch is easy to do only if you have the rivet tool (something like $20, but it's not a standard one). It's still do-able without it but a shop can probably do the job in 30 minutes with a proper tool.
http://www.xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-foru...-retrofit.html (scroll down for pics) I hope your arches came with new rivets because the black ones are not reuseable (the few white slide-in ones are though). Oh and: http://www.xoutpost.com/977817-post15.html

This project is next on my list. Just waiting to see if I can find some 20's (214's). B/c I feel like it will look silly with my 19's.
