BMW E39 Wide Body Fender Flares – Aggressive Look, Perfect Fitment

Looking to give your BMW 5 Series more character and a truly unique presence? These fender extensions, designed specifically for the E39 chassis, not only enhance the visual width of your car but also allow for wider wheels or tires without worrying about rubbing issues.

Technical Specifications of the Overfenders

Fender Flares made of ABS Plastic.

These body parts crafted from ABS plastic, a popular material in the automotive industry. ABS plastic is quite flexible and durable, making it well-suited for use in exterior body parts. When exposed to external factors, the plastic can withstand significant stress and will not crack or break.

We offer two types of product surface finishes:

Smooth surface (black, unpainted): Want to keep it clean or go custom? This finish works both ways – keep the raw black look for a stealthy style or paint it any color you want. Check the gallery for a close-up of the texture.

Textured Surface : The textured finish offers a more rugged and classic appearance, making it a perfect fit for retro or vintage-inspired builds. At the same time, it's increasingly popular in modern styling, especially for those seeking a tougher, OEM-plus look.

The Main Purpose and Use of Overfenders.

1. Extend the vehicle’s wheel arches - allowing for a wider stance and more aggressive look.

Their main function is to provide extra clearance for wider wheels and tires, preventing contact with the bodywork. This need often arises in motorsports such as drifting, circuit racing, rally, and autocross. Another important function is to stop small rocks and other hard debris thrown up by wider wheels from hitting the bodywork.

2. Tuning - wide fenders are not only used for functionality but also as part of tuning.

As wide wheels are often an inseparable feature of modified cars. As a result, they are typically accompanied by fender extensions. This gives the car a more aggressive and sporty look, making it stand out with a bold, muscular stance. Overfenders have been a popular choice for enhancing a car's appearance, both in the past and today. In fact, some car manufacturers originally produced them as part of the factory design for certain models.

2. Off-road - here, wide fenders primarily serve a protective role

While also covering wider wheels than usual, their main function is to shield the surroundings from debris, stones, and other objects thrown up by the tires. This helps protect both the items next to the vehicle and the car's body and paint.

What's Included & Installation Guide :

By default, the buyer receives a complete set of four fender trims – designed to cover both the front and rear wheel arches. However, it’s also possible to order a front-only or rear-only set, depending on your build requirements.

You can also choose to add an installation hardware kit, which includes:

☑ Mounting bolts 

☑ Threaded rivets nuts (Rivnuts) 

☑ Washers 

☑ U- shape rubber trim, designed to cover the outer edge of the flare for a cleaner finish and better fitment.

Installation instructions :

Park the vehicle on a level surface, ideally already fitted with the wheels you plan to use. Hold the fender flare against the body, making sure it sits flush and follows the natural curve of the fender. Also ensure it’s positioned at the correct height, with no contact between the flare and the tire. Once aligned, mark the mounting hole positions with a marker. Drill the holes, insert the rivnuts, and secure the flare using the provided screws. If you're installing significantly larger wheels (that don't fit within the stock fender arches), you will need to trim the original fender to remove any areas that interfere with or touch the tire.
