OEM mudflaps.

Get the Halfords ones, for £8.00, but you'll have to trim them to fit. I did!

Bonzo.
 
IMG_2826.webp Mine came with fronts and rears. The fronts definitely save the rear wing from being peppered by road crud and the rears probably keep spray down for anybody following. Unless you fitted the flaps yourself from new you don't know how much crud and rust was present before they went on, a previous owner may have fitted them to hide the crap!
 
If you fit them make sure you taken them off and clean behind them regularly.
I had OEM flaps and would not recommend them. The design traps dirt, does not close access to the sill and the clips damage the wing and sill flanges. See post #37 for what I found on removing mine.
Will take a look at the Halfords flaps to see if they are better, but expect regular cleaning will be requiured.
 
l'll be surprised if the BMW ones are still available. As the vehicle has been out of production for over twenty years.
