Yep. This for $800 and I'd buy it on the spot.
Up to $1000 with the splitter.
And no reflectors or headlight washers, of course.

my major concern is that this would be a single solid part made from a mold and not 2 bumpers bonded together. All of the 1 off bumpers I've seen so far are 2 bumpers blended together and I just dont trust that durability. If someone took one of those bumpers, made a mold from it, then could pump out new parts from that I would be down. This adds to the cost, but it would be worth it for the durability, to me at least.

count me in if there is way to get a m1 bumper for Z4MR looks way to cool to reject for under 1k. Make it happen if possible.

The bumper that mugosport is planning to do will be like that, in carbon fiber. Of course, it'll reflect on the price, but once its out I guess you will all agree that its worth it. Be patient, the tine is near, in the mean time were still working on the group buy for the custom front fenders in CF. Hit me up for any details

If MugoSport is working on it that brings up my next concern, isn't he in Spain? Shipping a bumper from Europe is going to be crazy expensive.... We could probably save as a group if we get enough pre-orders and he ships the lot together to one location, but it will still cost a lot.

We're currently working on finding a way to save on shipping. We're working on the first group buy, which will be for the fenders, then he will start adding other bits and pieces. Once we finish the research and find a situable price I will add pictures for you guys to drool on

I think the m3 bumper molder looks so much better than the 1m. The m3 bumper flows so cleanly

i think the z4m bumper looks best, and probably flows best with all existing bodylines. someone looking for a change might be happy with either the 1m or m3 rep since they both look decent

From my experience at ///M meets the Z4MR doesn't really pull much attention. My guess is because a lot of M3 and M5 owners don't know it's actually an ///M car. If a Z4M had an M3 front, I think it would gain a lot of attention once they realized the rest of the car wasn't an M3 lol.

I agree m3 is much cleaner.
The 1M doesn't work as well to my eye.

Add me to the list on this one! Would like to have a rough estimate on cost for a carbon fiber version.

I'm having an oem e92 m3 bumper molded to an early z4 bumper for my car. It will probably be for sale in few months!

My experience as well. That's their problem though, not ours. Z3 and Z4 ///M variants are some of the best Ms they've ever produced in the looks department, as well as performance. If I ever meet someone with an M3 again who doesn't know, I won't be surprised. It's happened before. A guy who just bought a Corvette at our store here literally had never heard of an M3. Amazeballs.

I've talked to MugoSport and he is preparing a front that is not m3 nor 1m. He assured me that we will love it.... and in fiberglass to cut the cost down.

gotta wait and see. in the meanwhile I am going to explore other company that can manufacture it....

hope it wont be fiberglass. That crap chips too easy and edges always look like crap. Changing a quality oem bumper to a downgraded fiberglass one is a mistake. Pay or dont play
