I notice both sides of the front inner tirewell have had severe rubbing and since looks like this. Also the underside seems to be ripped as well so maybe its not attached or whatever.
I know for a fact I replaced my right front tirewell last summer. So my concern is should the front tire be anywhere close to the inners. The last two images are when the tires are turned in all the way.

What rims and tires are you running? If not oem, what is the offset of the rim?

I can see from one pic that the front wheel well liner (pork chop) to brake duct fitment does not look tight. My suspicion would be that your pork chop isn't attached to the front bumper correctly and the wind is pushing back out of the position it should be in. Then you turn the wheel and your tire eats the plastic of that thin pork chop. These pork chops are about $50 each from the DC area dealers, and they normally keep them in stock.

Ok I look under and there seems to be a plastic piece that connects to the inner tirewell thats loose and cut up. What exactly are the parts I need to fix this I will post picture later of the underneath.

That's crazy.

Pork Chop? They are tasty. That could explain why a bite was taken.

It's also your wheels. With an offset that low it obviously pushes the wheel out further, but it also will push the wheel further forward at the outer edge when you turn.

DP,
Go online to Fairfax BMW, order them there and get a 25% discount, then drive in and pick them up. I should be around Sat around midday, look my number up in the members only section and give me a call. We should be able to install these in a few minutes for each side unless the attachment to the bumper is torn too (not uncommon). If that's the case, then we'll need to get a little creative with finding a secure way to attach it.
