Hi there,

After navigating over a speed bump on Monday, I discovered a huge concealed pothole lurking behind it. This section under the front bumper is damaged. Would someone kindly tell me the name of it?


Much obliged.

It's probably sketch number one in the attached file, and it's an arch liner. Since I had no idea how old you are when I randomly selected x4, you shouldn't consider that portion number as gospel.

Remember to enter the final seven digits of your chassis number into realoem when checking the PN, as suggests.

Wow, you've been so helpful this year (2018).

These parts resemble my M4, and they protrude from the area where your under bumper or splitter resides. In fact, you will need to trim them in order to install a splitter.
