Wheel well liners

Post by Rick Meinig »

I had the terrible experiencing of discovering that my front wheel well liners are all cracked. To make matters worse, they virtually disentegrated when I attempted to remove one in hopes of making a repair. The rubber is so brittle that just handling them results in there falling apart. I haven't checked to see if BMW still stocks them. Is there an aftermarket product or other fix?

Hi Rick,

Yes, you can order any of the underbody panels from your local BMW dealer (at about £80 each from UK BMW dealers for the front wheel arch items).

I had mine replaced last year but beware they are not easy to fit as you have to dismantle a lot of the suspension to install them without resorting to cutting them !!

Regards,

ChrisM.

I replaced mine last year for the very same reasons. £310+VAT last year; hate to think what they are now.
