Those prices are from the Morristown BMW forum. I used to use the same part# to call a few of my local BMW dealers for price quote, then I got $9xx list price, and $7xx mechanic price. So $575 + shipping or NJ tax is the best price ever !!!!!!!!!!!!1

RealOEM.com BMW E53 X5 4.6is Rear bumper trim panel - HP

Can anyone describe the contents of part# 51-12-7-073-518 (all that the RealOEM description states is "Set of fittings rear" and nobody at the BMW part shop seems to have a clue either).....:confused:

I'm assuming that this contains the adhesive, screws, clips etc needed to attach the rear 4.6is spoiler, (part# 51-12-7-062-601), but it would be nice to know exactly what? :dunno:

thx

Adhesive you can get from your local hardware store along with the four of five screws you need to secure it to the car.

When you say adhesive are you referring to 3M double sided tape or a special adhesive of some sort? I just want to make sure I attached the 4.6is rear spoiler with the exact OEM hardware used by BMW rather than using windshield epoxy adhesive and regular self taping screws as the DIY post indicated. I'm assuming 51-12-7-073-518 will contain all of that?

I think i have this kit lying around somewhere left unused. I can snap a picture later and post. After ordering it and going through the install process, I found that the items in that kit were useless. I didn't use adhesive tape or windshield sealer either. When you first get the rear spoiler/valence, it comes with plastic tabs that the Xoutpost link on the homepage suggests you should remove. I kept them on and actually used them with stainless screws to hold it in place on the bumper cover.

You can choose any way you want to actually do it. Personally, I followed the instructions from the DIY and had no problems.
