4.6 body kit
 

So, the only option I have is $900 for a for 4.6 body kit?

look for used one on ebay for a lot cheaper

Please give me a hint how to find it. I have been looking for a year now and never found one. I might have not searched for the proper words. Help me with a link please.

I waited about 1 and a half years to get my 4.6 kit. I got it used from a member parting out his car. You have to be on top of it and as soon as someone is ready to sell just ask for his paypal address and send payment. There a lot of members just like you out there.

900 is good deal as of today in canada, I am sure u alredy know this kit is going for 2700cdn at ur local diller on ebay they are 1100 here is the link

can't we all do a group buy or somethin?

900 bucks plus paint dont forget

I just got mine from Morristown a week ago where is the cheapest I could find although I find it very expensive for what it is. BMW raised their prices because the demand. They don't ship to Canada though but you can have it shipped to an US address close to the border somewhere and go pick it up as I did. Use this email for contact: [email protected]. It was $825+$75 shipping.

group buy sounds very good there is a lot of members that r looking to buy this kit we should contact NJ bmw and ask them for a deal

i'm down.. i've been wanting this kit for awhile. i think we need to find out how many members we need to get a deal.. and they might work somethin out..

Is there any member from Morristown that can talk to sales about the deal
and then we start group buy for it, see if we can get the old price back.

they aren't sponsers here anymore..

I'm Down for this as well. Liked to see if we can get a group buy before i pull the trigger on the ACS kit

soo.. who wants to call them/ shoot them an email?

So I sent them an email. Now we wait ..

still no reply.. maybe they don't take group buys :dunno:

This is the guy I bought from and he responded very quick. ry his email [email protected]

he's at morristown?

Yes. morristown is actualy openroad...

ok thanks ill send him an email

am down for GROUP DEAL :)

cool.. i sent them an email to the new address provided.. i'll keep you guys updated

btw i have 4.4 does anyone know how can i get those exhaust tips as 4.6i without major work done??
thnx

i got them and just welded them on.. its not alot of work and its the only way to get the OEM 4.6 look

oh great, would u be able to tell me where to get/order them from please...

i purchased them from a member here. the member got them from morristown bmw. you can get them from any bmw dealership or website that sells OEM bmw parts.

I've bought a bunch of parts from him too. He and his manager run the internet portion of the biz for Open Road (but are part of Morristown BMW parts). The website email address almost never gets responded, but Rishon's always responded accordingly.

still awaiting a reply from him..

I'm down as well. BTW, I have a 2006 4.4i. I just purchased the extended wheel arches from Richon so he should still be there.

still no reply.. maybe they don't want to? we should try it somewhere else

i would send an email to mike dossantos. I've dealt with him more than Rishon and I think he's his manager. Mike was always been courteous and responsive and would forward many of my price quotes and order requests to Rishon for immediate response.

Meet our friendly BMW staff at BMW of MORRISTOWN

arite ill send out another email. thanks

here is the reply:

hi,

as you probably know 825.00 is a killer price. shipping will not be able to be discounted as combining everything will need a freight company which costs more. but if you get 4 or more ppl to buy the kit all at once. i can drop the total price by 50$

so 850 will be the price for each shipped for 4 or more people

if you get 8 or more i can drop by 75 to make is 825 each set.

contact me if and when you are interested and i can send invoice to various people through paypal. thank you.


not that great of a price :( ..

will this fit an 06?

well the more we get ppl here to get it with us the more he well drope!!!!
ask him how about 20 ppl how much well he go down?

i am 100% in if the price is right.

+1 my '06 has PDC and headlight washers...........

come across this on ebay

4.8is body kit
 

There's a guy on the uk ebay selling repilca kits ....

I email to this guy in UK, and sak about 4.6 kit replica here is what I got

Hello. For BMW x5 4.6 fornt and rear spoiler cost - 350 euro and shipping 100 euro. If you plan by 10 or more, it will be 290 euro per one kit (fornt and rear).
Best reagards, Deniss.

So if u work out todays currency 390 euro = 543us shipped for replica
what do u guys think?

I would have... but I just got mine a few weeks ago. :( that's actualy awesome. it looks like this kit comes with the arches 6pcs.

the replica kit sounds fairly priced..as long as its the 4.6 kit to fit pre-facelift. especially good price for the group buy rate..

great price...

have you seen it installed in person yet?

this guy is in UK I email him about it

how many guys r actually looking in to buy 4.6 kit?
lets start the pole and see

iam in

BMW e53 X5 4.8is Body kit Tuning - eBay (item 250447774826 end time Jun-26-09 12:00:00 PDT)

this guy in UK has 4.6 kit and 4.8 kit

Aftermarket Fiberglass; NO!
Factory ABS: YES!

(I think the price is too close to settle for fiberglass reproductions).

If you are talking about a group buy at a discount, let me know how much for the rear w/ the extended wheel arches.... (or maybe someone here only wants the front spoiler, and I could take the rear apron and the F/Fs)

i am In

I will take one also.

what is the difference between fiberglass and the factory material?

Im looking for the 4.8 Kit

x2

The OEM material is a really nice fitting and nice finished injection moulded polymer plastic (probably either ABS, PP or PE).

The fiberglass usually doesn't look just right (wavy finish), doesn't fit just right, and will crack from any flexing or impacts. Just a completely inferior material for front and rear bupmers.

I wouldn't put fiberglass bumpers on my X5 if they were free... and that is coming from past experiences of myself and numerous friends. I've never really seen someone fully satisfied with a fiberglass bumper come to think of it.

thanks weasel! guess its back to square one..

I am in for OEM 4.6 Kit

Most kits are PP, very good stuff!

I'm in for a 4.6 kit

hey guys here is website, they sell 4.6 replicas, I email them on the price see if we can get a deal.

BMW X5-BODYKIT.LV

do you price yet?

They speak russian,i will get price for replica for you guys. Will get back as soon as hear from them.

Body kit cost 170 in their money,or if i am not wrog it is 340$ US dollars + paiting if u want + shipping. GREAT DEAL. It is fiberglass replica OE standards.

Is this for both the front and rear 4.8is bumper pieces? Any idea on what the cost to ship to the USA might be?

Morristown had quoted me the following for the 4.8is bumper:

51-12-7-062-601 SUPPORT REAR BUM $275.00
51-12-7-062-599 SUPPORT COVER, L $125.00
51-12-7-062-600 SUPPORT COVER, R $125.00

Front replica 4.8 whole bumper cost close to 400$ there. Which is nothing compare to US prices :-) Plus you can paint it there pretty cheap,compare to US,as labor cheap there. have no idea about shipping,but my guess is 200$ for everything.

thanks (spasibo bratan) sobi6111 for the info on the kit they did reply to me but not with the cost, they need it my address for shipping, my guess
they will get back to me with the total tomorrow sometimes, the only thing I am out of Canada so shipping to US should be around the same or $50 more or less.
I also ask them to give me group discount if we go ahead and get maybe 15 to 20 guys to buy it, see what they will say.

They gave me shipping price,it is 330$ :-( not reasonable price.

по цене -

передний спойлер 114eur (165usd) - frotn spoiler
задний спойлер 128eur (185usd) - rear spoiler
доставка 228eur (330usd) - delivery
всего 680usd - total to US

если нужна покраска - то это примерно по 100usd за каждый спойлер

this is what I got from them

the normal price for this set is
200eur (290USD) for the front add-on
129eur (184USD) for the rear add-on
if you order one set - the delivery by UPS takes about 220eur (319USD). I can serch for other companies but I don't think that the price will be less then 200eur (290USD)
so total 459eur (665USD) per set with delivery

if you will take 20sets at once
we can make the price
120eur (174USD) front
90eur (130USD) rear
and the delivery price will be about 580eur (841USD) by UPS.
total 4200eur (6090USD) for all or 210eur (304.5USD) per one set with delivery

I am in...but i need 4.6,not 4.8 bodykit
 

I am in for 4.6 body kit

Interest counter: 1!!!

So, whats up with this group buy from Morristown? Anyone have an update?

I have a 02' 4.4i.
I'm 110% in for a full 4.6 kit, preferably painted black sapphire too.

they didn't offer much of a discount

I recently got a '05 3.0i and would be very interested in getting this kit. Not sure exactly what kit will fit though.. Any input would be awesome. Will the 4.8 kit fit this x5? How much modification is required? Thanks!

ditto:thumbup:

same here!

I'm in as well

I am in too:thumbup:

I'm in for sure!!!!!!

guys, nobody is really the 'leader' of the group buy so someone has to step up (alot of people saying i'm in lol). I did contact morristown awhile back but they did not give much of a discount so it wasn't a good deal. The set going for $300 is NOT the same OEM set.. it is a fiberglass replica. Some have said that material is not durable and not worth it.

Fiberglass WILL crack.. especially in the winter here in Boston. I often see cheesy honda civics with fiberglass body kits all cracked up and looking ridiculous.. if the $300 kit is fiberglass.. im out :thumbdown

will the fiberglass really be that bad?

the kit is not large, just small thin pieces, that probably don't flex much while on the vehicle.

Especially if someone like Weasel says that he wouldn't install a fiberglass body kit if it were free, they must be pretty bad.

did anyone end up hetting the fibreglass kit?

i bought a fiber glass 4.6 body kit for only 400 usd
it is simililar to the oem and even better because you can fix it easily {when u have a crash]:D

cool...where was it purchased from?

Bumpp! Sorry guys I know this thread is dead but if you guys went ahead with the group buy how did the kit turn out and where'd you buy it from? Thanks!

I'm curious too! I'd be in for a group buy.
