OEM Running Boards Part Numbers - Please Confirm this is Correct!
 

OK so i think i may go for the OEM running boards on my 4.8is. I want to add the front and rear fender flares as well, so here are the part numbers I am assuming I need:

01 RETROFIT KIT, ALUMINIUM FOOTBOARD 1 51710017315 $809.10 +core

01 COVER, WHEEL ARCH, FRONT LEFT 1 51717051037 $233.24 +core
01 COVER, WHEEL ARCH, FRONT RIGHT 1 51717051038 $233.24 +core

05 COVER, WHEEL ARCH, REAR LEFT 1 51717051035 $242.17 +core
05 COVER, WHEEL ARCH, REAR RIGHT 1 51717051036 $242.17 +core

Does this look correct? I know LeMans and Ekaz have done this already, so really lookin for some confirmation here before I place the order.

I already have the rivet gun so I can do this myself. Will I need any other hardware or is it all included in the kit?

Thanks!!

And where do you think is cheaper........Morristown BMW or Paul Miller BMW?

I am not sure you need new flares, why do you think you need them, I think you already have them on as stock.
Please call Crevier BMW in Santa Ana, CA for a price. They gave us food and gifts at WF IV. You need to ask for the internet parts department.
Good Luck.

I just ordered my 4.6 kit and running boards from Morristown. I got the RB's for $535. :thumbup:

The service wasn't that great, they took their time with calling me back, faxing me the forms, and etc. but all in all it was a positive transaction, and since you live in Jersey, you can just go meet up with them.

I know, it's an old thread
 

I was thinking about putting on running boards but $968.00 seemed
way out of line. But I noticed some different prices listed here.

Is there really that much of a price difference?

Here ya go. Look under the section "4.6/4.8 – Aluminum Running Boards WITH Front and Rear Flares."

I knew I saw that somewhere. And I looked......:rofl:
Blind as a bat.......:dunno:

OBTW JS_4.8 ask the question in 2006.
Me? I'm still thinking running boards can't be
$1000.00 That's why I resurrected the thread
