Skid Plates

BMWs, just like many other makes, only include plastic under-body shields and are often vulnerable on the underside of the engine bay to debris in the road, track, and off road rally courses. When the vehicles are lowered, they also become vulnerable to damage when bottoming out on high spots in the road, drive ways, and other business entrances. This can pose a serious problem if the oil pan and other sensitive components are damaged when this happens. Cracks in the oil pan could result in a destroyed motor if the oil is allowed to completely leak out and any number of bushings, steering components, or exposed fluid lines could easily be ripped out of place, compromising the safety and control of the vehicle.
To prevent this, Race Skids provides a range of Heavy Duty Skid Plates for many classic BMW models. Constructed from heavy duty 10-gauge steel, these skid plates provide a much needed upgrade to under-body protection, helping to absorb the the impact of debris or the road itself to the bottom of the vehicle. This helps ensure that the oil pan and other components are left completely intact, keeping you on the road with no worries.
An added benefit of these Heavy Duty Skid Plates is a black powder coated surface. This protects the plate itself from oxidation and corrosion, gives the plate a smooth scratch resistant surface, and makes it much easier to clean and maintain, allowing you to simply spray or wipe away built up dirt, salt, or any other build up.
Included with the Skid Plate is all needed mounting hardware. These too are corrosion resistant to allow for easy installation and removal of the skid plate for needed maintenance to the vehicle.
Fits the following Chassis:
E34 BMW 530i 535i
Fits the following Motor:
M30

Replace your flimsy plastic rocker panels with a rugged steel casing to protect your underbody and have confidence in your overlanding.
The factory rocker covers are made from abs plastic and can take a beating over the years, whether you have damaged them off-roading or are just looking for a rugged and amazing looking replacement rocker, look no further than the ECS Rock Sliders for your E53. The ECS rock sliders are a combination of superior strength and OEM+ aesthetics, if you don't tell anyone they have been replaced they will never even know; they look that good!
Pro tip: If you are really trying to be stealth there is always the option to paint the mounting hardware black before or after installation
The ECS Rock Sliders are a multi piece design made up of the base mounting bracket components and more-than-rugged outer shell. The base layer is 3/16” aluminum for maximum strength while minimizing weight and sit flush against the body fastened to the installed riv-nuts that are included in the kit. An ingenious design utilizes brackets that mount both the factory front and rear trim extensions while also having mounts for the outside shell. The outside shell is made up of 1/8" thick steel for a nearly bulletproof protection. All components are coated in a satin black powder coat for both durability and to match the original finish of the plastic trim.

BMW F90 M5 Oil Cooler Guard Wrinkle Black - Fall Line Motorsports offers exceptional protection for the F90 M5’s oil cooler. While BMW has designed an effective cooling system with advanced ducting, core design, and strong fans, the S63 engine’s oil cooler remains exposed to potential damage from road debris. A direct impact can cause severe damage, draining the engine of oil and leading to significant issues.
The Fall Line Motorsports oil cooler guard is engineered to address this vulnerability. Made from thick stainless steel, this guard attaches directly to existing frame members, dispersing impact across structural components to protect the oil cooler. The guard features an opening that matches the BMW oil cooler’s air outlet, ensuring optimal airflow. Installation is simple, utilizing existing mounting points and retaining the factory plastic shield and ducting.
