51778052077 Flare | Rear Wheel Arch Extension for 2010-2017 BMW X3 M F25
51778052077 Flare: Rear Left Wheel Arch Extension for BMW X3 M F25 2010-2017
Specifically engineered for BMW X3 M F25 models, the 51778052077 Flare rear left wheel arch extension enhances rear quarter panel protection while maintaining factory-style aesthetics. This precision-molded component integrates seamlessly with existing body contours, extending coverage to protect against road debris and environmental damage. The textured surface replicates OEM patterns ensuring visual consistency across body panels. Aerodynamically optimized to minimize turbulence around rear tires, it effectively reduces spray dispersion by 30% compared to standard wheel wells. The 51778052077 Flare features integrated clips and pre-drilled mounting points that align with factory attachment locations for straightforward installation. Flexible sealing edges prevent dirt accumulation between extension and bodywork, maintaining clean vehicle lines through various driving conditions. Manufactured with UV-stabilized polymers to resist fading, this component maintains structural integrity under extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to 85°C. The extended coverage accommodates wider tires while maintaining proper clearance during suspension articulation, making the 51778052077 Flare a practical upgrade for both aesthetics and functionality.
Technical Specifications
Material Construction
High-impact ABS polymer blend with TPE reinforcement at stress points provides optimal flexibility and impact resistance. Surface treatment includes UV inhibitors and texture replication matching factory finishes. The 51778052077 Flare undergoes rigorous material testing to ensure longevity against environmental stressors.
Design Features
Optimized curvature maintains consistent 15mm gap between tire and extension at full suspension compression. Integrated drainage channels prevent water accumulation while clip-and-fastener hybrid mounting system ensures vibration-free performance. Each 51778052077 Flare is contour-matched to specific BMW X3 M F25 body lines.
Performance Characteristics
Wind-tunnel developed profile reduces aerodynamic drag coefficient by 12% compared to uncovered wheel wells. Impact-resistant formulation withstands stone strikes up to 120 km/h while temperature tolerance maintains flexibility from -40°C to 105°C. The 51778052077 Flare demonstrates exceptional durability in diverse driving environments.
Vehicle Compatibility
The 51778052077 Flare rear left wheel arch extension is designed exclusively for BMW X3 M F25 models produced between June 2010 and August 2017. Maintains clearance for factory parking sensors and bumper-mounted tow hooks while compatible with both standard and lowered M Sport suspension configurations. Accommodates original equipment tires ranging from 245/50R18 to 275/40R20 dimensions with precise alignment on pre-LCI and LCI variants. Not compatible with aftermarket widebody conversions or vehicles using wheel spacers exceeding 15mm thickness. The 51778052077 Flare maintains clearance for rear mud flaps when installed according to mounting guidelines, ensuring comprehensive protection without compromising functionality.
Installation Guidelines
Clean contact surfaces with isopropyl alcohol before installation. Begin mounting from the lower bumper attachment point, working upward to ensure proper contour alignment. Use plastic trim tools during installation to prevent surface marring. Torque fasteners to 8 N·m maximum using cross-pattern sequence. Verify clearance throughout full suspension travel before final tightening. Recommended maintenance includes quarterly cleaning of inner surfaces to remove accumulated debris. For winter operation, periodically check seal integrity where extension meets bodywork.
