The covers only come if you purchase the whole body kit (front, rear bumpers, side skirts, etc...). It's even lame that just getting the OEM MTech rear bumper doesn't come with a diffuser.

i have a new pair from my pre-LCI kit that I didn't use. I don't know if pre-LCI and LCI are the same, and I don't know what BMW wants for them (I can't imagine it's much). For some reason I can't access realoem right now, but if you cross reference the part numbers and you can use what I have, PM me and you can have them.

The old ones transfered over just fine on my car, which is why I have a spare set. I'm betting they'll work OK for you too, but if you need mine let me know.

Pre and Post LCI pdc sensors are different sizes.

This thread is about headlight washer covers, not PDC sensors.

Interesting, I just bought an OEM M5 bumper and it came with the tow cover and washer covers. Though I did pay nearly $700 with tax so they better throw those in......lol
