side steps and arches
side steps and arches
Just bought a set of side steps and wheel arches to go on my x as she didn't have them fitted £200 of eBay in really good condition , just removed all the rubber tits of the running boards and a clean up with some wire wool and autosol and then get them fitted soon.

Re: side steps and arches
+1. The X5 does need them.
Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.Re: side steps and arches
Looking good - did you pay to have the tints done or did it come with them? I've got the same colour and I'm limiting myself to 1 upgrade a month - next month I need to choose from window tints, side boards or alloy refurbs.

Re: side steps and arches
I know what you mean! Mine came with 17in rims but all are in good nick bar one. I'm weighing up whether to just refurb the one or try and get my hands on a set of bigger rims as they do look better.

Get a bigger set! The 19" sport wheels don't cost the earth and look great!
