This seems to be the only diy I can find for e82 but I guess I'll look harder. Haha I think the mud guards make the car look more aggressive, and protecting your paint is a plus.
Thanks for the info.

Read some of the write-ups, but for the 135i you don't use all the mounting holes. I honestly did it on the fly without looking at the DIY, but it was apparent what would and wouldn't work. And whenever possible, I tried to reuse the existing screws.

You can find on eBay, look up 3m clear film and you can buy the size you want. Just make sure you properly clean/prep the area.

I used to think mud guards were fugly and had no purpose on a performance car but after years of wasting money on resprays, I decided it was worth taking a small hit on aesthetics to preserve the paint. And honestly I don't think it looks bad at all...
