Missing Pressure Lip Seal
My F25 doesn't have the front "pressure lip seal" This is the front facing mud flap like plastic protrusion that reduces air pressure in front of the tire.
http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...23&hg=51&fg=70 My E83 had them and there are screw holes in my F25 where they should have been placed. Does anyone have them on their rig? Pressure lip seal, front left 51627213653 Pressure lip seal, front right 51627213654 |

Don't have the lips (only the thread inserts) on my 35i and have never seen the front lips installed on a NA X3 in the midwest, although they all seem to have the rear ones. The BMW NA configurator does show them on the cars. Maybe BMW decided the cars look better without them, or some bean counter determined they could save 29 cents on each car by leaving them off.

Mine came with front and rear - build date was roughly week 8.
