Hey guys!
I got those "MudGuards" put on from the BWM Workshop after taking the delivery of my car, within couple of days! its very important to have it in India, as chances are bright that u will get lotsa nicks with small pebbles flying around. Also in rainy seasons, the roads get flooded and places where there are potholes, its very essential to have the Mud Guards to protect the car from having MUD around your bumpers and front doors.
Cost me around US$200 for the Mudguards/Mudflaps + $50 for fitting. = $250.00

Ok, here ya go. Poke all the fun you want! I put them on for functionality. (See the driveway!)
Seriously though, they look fine to me. I have no choice with my ride, as BMW don't make a set that fit with the M Sport Areo kit.

Actually, I thought that you had fitted a body kit!
Seriously though, they look fine to me. I have no choice with my ride, as BMW don't make a set that fit with the M Sport Areo kit.

Nah mate, didnt get a LV "look" bag with it !
Prices of Cars and Spares - which are imported as is or as a CKD unit (Complete Knock Down kits of cars) are levied very high Custom Duty.
the OnRoad price for my E60 520d '08 August, i paid around US$100,000/- !!!!! the Spare parts are also damn expensive here! eBay works perfect for me, most of the time, no duty is levied when i buy and get it couriered to my address, but at times, if something electronic, then yes, a duty is levied - around 30-40%! still cheaper! coz in the workshop, the spares are around 100-150% more than what it costs in the US.

Not in the UK. The 2008 accessories catalogue says "Mudflaps cannot be fitted to sport models".
