Any Fender Flares Available for 135i?
I am about to lease a 2011 135i with the m-sport package as a second car (I drive an 07' 335xi e90 as my daily) and wanted to know if anyone makes a fender flare kit for it? I have been looking pretty thoroughly but have only found complete body kits. I really like the way the the body looks with just the m-sport package but think a pair of larger fender flares over all four wheels and wheel spacers would make the car look ten times better. I'd appreciate any info that you can give me.

You're in luck then.
Check out the Evolution Racewerks front kit. It comes with a new front bumper which has the mtek bumper look, fenders and rockers for an OEM look and about 1 1/2" more fender on each side |

Thanks for the tip but like I said, I am only interested in fender flares as I am happy with how the rest of the car looks with the m-sport package.

Can you tell that this car has had any front end work?
Thats the ER front widebody If you want just some extended bolt on arches then your SOL and will need them custom fabricated. Only 1 person that I know of has done this, check out some threads made by UntouchableE82 |

I just ordered the ER widebody kit for my 135.
Prior to ordering I was able to check out the ER track car and some kits in their shop. The body kit is top knotch. They used a double sided mold, where body kits are traditionally one sided, to ensure quality casts and fitment. The kits were also sculpted and moulded off of OEM panels so all of the mounts bolt up very well. It's an extremely good price for what it is. ER designed the kit for their own race team and are only selling them to recooperate some costs of the mold. I recommend you consider this kit. |

Thanks for the support!
Yeah as the other people have mentioned, the rear quarter panel is welded to the chassis like 99% of the cars out there are. So there is no such thing as bolt on for rear flares. Whatever you do, it will be permanent. We will be doing the rear quarters sometime in the future. For those who have seen our race car in person know why =P. It really comes down to find the right body guys to prototype the part for us without having to eat cup o noodles for a few months. Quote:
