F30 M Performance Rocker Panel Blades

Bleser · 06-11-2015, 01:53 PM

There seems to be plenty of options for the M Sport front bumper, rear bumper, side skirts, spoiler, etc., but the rocker panel blades (the extensions below the side skirts) seem to be OEM-only (i.e. getbmwparts.com). Has anyone found a place that offers quality replicas? They aren't that expensive anyway so it isn't a big deal but the OEM blades are more expensive than quality side skirt replicas by about 50%.

Haven't seen any. I'd be interested in this too. Did you find the OEMs on getbmwparts? I couldn't find them. Got a link?

From shopbmwusa.com, you can get the part numbers and then plug those into getbmwparts.com:

There are plenty of 3rd party options. Just dunno which are reputable lol.

I went OEM last weekend. $380 is what I paid.

I got mine from ECS Tuning. $266 + $50 shipping. It's OEM. The non-oem/aftermarket ones might not have the nicely spaced dimples (17 of them) for you to drill the holes. It may not have the screws and plastic rivets, and it may not have the double-sided tapes either.
