aftermarket belly pan

[X5-User]

My belly pan shield is totally damaged and needs replacement.

Does anyone know were I can source aftermarket belly pan shield instead of going with OEM which are $300+

I searched all over the internet from different online aftermarket parts and found absolutely nothing !

still no aftermarket belly Pan

But $159 is much better than $300+ isnt it? And would likely fit better and last longer than a $75 cover if there was an aftermarket cover.

When OP mentions $300+ I'm assuming he/she is referring to all 3 sections. The belly pan pictured in the ECS link above is only the center section - the 2 outside sections, which have their own part #'s, are roughly $75 each. All together it's about $300.

People have been complaining about the cost of the triangle pieces, which are a separate part, for some time. There is a thread in which someone was supposedly testing aftermarket triangle pieces, but nothing has come to market yet.

Who has a 3D printer that will start printing them and selling them?

I have a friend 3d printing me the side felt replacements in plastic to clear my APR splitter. I may have him print that piece as well to give even more ground clearance.

Don't buy the aftermarket replacement from ecs. the fitment is terrible and it's made of cheap, flimsy plastic that doesn't hold up and sags.

OEM is perfect. ECS use to sell a cheap Chinese made replacement that was terrible.

Nice! Spread the wealth and hook up a group buy for the forum!!!

Or at least ask for a copy of his design blueprints in CAD or whatever he modeled them in?
