Thoughts? Thinking about Christmas/Bonus present

ricanbandit · 11-06-2013, 08:34 AM

So I was thinking about what to do for myself with this years Christmas/Birthday present for myself and I found this. Thoughts?

I think I've seen the OE front so much that anything too different looks strange

A shiny pair of aero skirts would be a nice find under the Christmas tree

a bit too busy up front for my tastes, but i also think the stock m bumper is a bit boring.

Not for me. I second the aero side skirts.

That bumper has me drooling!

I think it would look good in black, but probably not in a lighter colour.

Well , If the shipping is right, I am getting it instead of respraying my M bumper. We will see, hopefully it all works out. of course, pics will be made available as soon as I get it

It looks interesting to me, but the fitment looks slightly off on the left side. I'd also like to see a side shot.

Who makes it? I can't say I've seen this one before. It is a little busy, but its not too bad

This is the site for the US distributor

http://www.lltek.com/bimmergate/html...w_z_series.htm

When all is said and done it is about 855 just for the bumper pls 280 shipping. Side skirts are 322 a piece, but would ship in the same box. There is also a lip that goes with the bumper (insert) for 200 So about 2K plus paint, so lets call it 3500?

Hummm., now how cant I get this approved by the chairman of my board... Any thoughts on how to sell it to the wifey

Agree. The front end of our cars is somewhat boring but I am not sure if I like this look. Beside, I could think of many things to get for $3800. But go for it if u like it (and get the approval from the boss lady;-)

I would rather spend it on a custom bumper like this.....
