arabbmw · 05-09-2008, 12:47 AM

i wouldnt either, looks a little weird to me.

Yeahas · 05-09-2008, 01:05 AM

a lot of ebay vendors carry it tho..maybe i should be the first one to try?

mJ335 · 05-09-2008, 01:09 AM

Sure, take the bullet for us and let us know

E90SLAM · 05-09-2008, 01:33 AM

You won't be the first to try

I bought my front and rear bumpers from them. You'll have to do a lot including building up the sides a little to get them to fit. The guy who does my bodywork said it was a real PITA to do. Not worth it. Just get the real deal. Believe me, you'll save a lot of $$ in the end.

^^^^^ like he said.

then again, if you have a hook up with fiberglass/bodywork, you'll end up saving couple hundred bucks. When I used to drive japanese imports, I used to get all kinds of kits from ebay or actual retailers. With ebay products, almost bad luck everytime. Fitment just isn't there. I had a friend who fixes fiberglass/ABS/urethane for fun in his garage(and he was damn good). I just bought it off ebay, and brought it to him.

He used to do work that costs nearly $300~$400 for $100. He did complain EVERY single time. hahaha he said its not the materials that are shitty, its just when they do molding, they are quite careless about precise measurement. Now he owns a shop, he doesn't hook me up. So no more ebay products for me.

yoyeewee · 05-09-2008, 02:35 AM

it does look tempting cuz the price is so low.

E90SLAM · 05-09-2008, 08:33 AM

If you are in Los Angeles area....I would recommend Longtran more than this ebay....he'll take care of you! :thumbsup

montreal_bimmer · 05-09-2008, 01:11 PM

looks not bad, but i wouldnt do it.... screw up cost just as much as doing it properly... so which do u prefer

SteveMondragon · 05-09-2008, 05:55 PM

heh. I actually know where they get those bumpers from (from the warehouse pics - it's my friend's company in Santa Fe Springs). I haven't talked to him in awhile but the last I did, I asked him to get or make a rep of the oem aero lip so I could check it out (since it would cost well under $100). I'll follow up on the mtech style bumpers.
