These will potentially cause ground clearance issues depending on how low your car is.

Also they have to be screwed through the plastic trim on the car, which means paintwork if you ever want to take them off :cry:

I'd be wary of fitting them to a car as low as a Z4.

I had some on a 2.8i Capri many years ago. Did a 3 point turn and didn't hit the kerb, but one rear mud-flap did and got ripped off. :roll:

Fronts might save the sills from some stone chips though!
Coupes because stunning!

I've got a set of rears I planned on putting on my Coupe, but I am worried they will get ripped off. I've never seen a set of fronts for sale

Could try asking a local BMW dealership to see if they can source them new, I’ve been quite surprised at what they can get and even more surprised at how well priced some items are, others can leave you wishing you hadn’t asked though!!

Have front and back fitted on mine and not had any issues with clearance. Other than general issue of low two seater type stuff.
Had no idea these were rare. I gave a set to Nick as a thank you for meeting to make use of his iCarly

Any chance you can post a couple of pics of your mudflaps ? They seem to be quite rare.
Thanks

Side view of mine with mud flaps.

I'd really like another rear right one, as mine is damaged.
