mudflaps installed on freshly washed black sapphire X3

install was pretty easy - I am not sure if I am satisfied with the 2 sided tape...I'll probably put oem sealant on there eventually. I didn't even have to take off the wheels - just turned them right to do the passenger side and left to do the driver's side (fronts). Rears were pretty easy if you have a small ratchet/screwdriver.

Looks good. I am not a fan of the volks though. Don't get me wrong I love volks, but I don't think they go with the X3

I know they aren't everyone's taste. I had them left over from my 335 and I couldn't go wrong with 17 pound forged wheels.

I understand where you're coming from. I would love a set on my 350z but I'm pretty partial to my rpf1's.

There was no drilling of holes - there is one self tapping screw that goes through the fabric-like fender liner in the rears. The mud flaps use existing bolt/screw holes to attach to the car.
