They are "running board"

Hey your on the e39 forums, :). I remember your sig. I have a e39 and looking for a x5 4.8is. I have an explorer and looking to upgrade. Not much room in the x5 for carrying things in the back. Anyway only certain x5s have the stainless running boards?

They look nice and as an added bonus they are guaranteed to ruin any and every pair of khaki's you have ever owned!

( assuming you would ever let your X5 get dirty )

;)

Useless .. They only good for getting your pants dirty..

:thumbup: There're others: QSilver7, Doru ...
They're accessory add-on for the X5. I like the look of it. You can get them from the dealer for about $750 :rolleyes:, only come as a kit with the plastic wheel arches.

With the 300z(x) in your screenname, any chance you're on 300zxclub, twinturbo.net also? ;)

weren't those running boards "standard" country issue on Canadian models???

^I don't think so, since Doru's new E53 doesn't have it.

Are you interested in adding them to your X or do you already have them?
