Lastly their is a downside, if your car has to be pulled sideways out of a gravel trap the fabric straps may pull your bumper off.
BTW the one you found requires some cutting for a non race car i'd recommend this type. http://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-27...90-e92-m3.aspx |
Yea I was apprehensive about the cutting part but thought it might be possible to simply feed it through the panel gap. That is a much better solution, thanks for finding it I was on Turner a lot yesterday and never saw it. Too bad the website says it doesn't fit our cars
