Yeah I know nothing of fiberglass work I am really intrigued to see what it is going to look like in the end.

Well...if it gets sanded and painted and attached well it should look good.

mister_roger · 09-24-2007, 05:22 PM

Lookin' good so far. Mad props for your creativity and fiberglass skills. Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

At first glance, it reminds me of a slightly shorter Alpina front lip. Hopefully the final design may be something along these lines.

I like the Alpina one better than the second one you posted... you would get mad props if you could get your name to stand out like the Alpina does in the first one!

angelsz4 · 09-28-2007, 11:20 AM

Hawkeye · 09-28-2007, 12:09 PM

Okay, I am confused... how did he incur so much damage? Sorry to hear about this, the bottom of your bumper looks intact though.... hint hint

ROAD EAGLE · 09-28-2007, 12:15 PM

Those bimmers are hard! That's why I don't like jap cars...they crumble like cookie.

angelsz4 · 09-28-2007, 02:05 PM

oh and what do you all think about this
well something similiar

Dammmittt · 09-28-2007, 04:15 PM

If you want it that low I'd avoid speed bumps and shitty roads, otherwise you'll end up leaving it on the street somewhere.

ricerx1 · 09-29-2007, 04:58 PM

Time to abandon the front lip and make a front bumper.

Hawkeye · 09-30-2007, 08:43 PM

The hint hint meant that you can still make your lip... but I had forgotten it was already in a free standing form. You can have it on the bumper when doing some of the designing to make sure it is looking good though.

I like your MS paint idea...without the holes on the sides though.

jmontello · 09-30-2007, 10:03 PM

tell the insurance that your neck hurts and by an ///M coupe hahaha

JEllis · 10-02-2007, 01:06 AM

Dammmittt · 12-13-2007, 07:49 PM

angelsz4 · 12-13-2007, 10:35 PM
