Those space gray pics look familiar

In all seriousness, now that I do have them on they look awesome and complete the look of my car. There is the slight bulge on the driver's side, but I don't even really notice it anymore.

They are going to try and have them out to me within about a week. A buddy of mine has looked at the original skirts and the new ones and he will put these replacement ones on for me when they get here so I am not out anymore money with the BMW body shop. Fingers crossed!!!

You guys were right about Frank being very customer oriented and wanting to help. I will update l8tr.
Got confirmation from Frank that my new side skirts are being shipped today, 27 August. I will update and take some new pictures to show, once I receive and have them installed.

I hope you guys that are getting the replacement ones will be as happy as I have been with my skirts, and even the guys that are getting their orders finally...It seems as though speaking to them they have resolved all the inherent glitches...

Frank's da Man!!! Got the skirts today, but car is in the dealership for HPFP like symptoms Will put it on as soon as I possibly can. Packaging and paint matching are impeccable as always. Not sure how the holes line up since I dont have my car.

I found a roll of 3M tapes, is there certain spot that might be lose and will require 3M tapes?

Heck........ how about an unbiased independant Dyno run comparing stock air filter verses Simota 335 Air Intake..........I'd never buy this just on looks and sound. That's justs stupid.

Seems like M-Force Design don't even want a sale here, because if they had any intent in selling these, they would provide us with the data we so desperately need.

Since I believe they are just shifting boxes along with no real collateral gain, they have no interest to even bother to respond to any potential customers............great business plan

So, as it turns out, the replacement skirt didn't fit too well either, because by the time I got it home, the front had popped out again. But this time, I had them just glue the fucking thing on. So....without further adieu. What do you think?

The first pic is a "before". The rest are all after.

I think it looks hot....Looks so much more aggressive with the M3 sideskirts than without it from your before and after pics...I am glad you got them to work, even with some glue, which I also used a little to make them stay on for good....I look at it this way, at this point if I need to change them out, its because they are damaged and the betalink glue that I used would pose no problems, and if thats the case I would buy another set from them anyways! At this point I think they have a pretty damn good product especially since they fixed from your pictures the driver's side length issue!!

OEM ones look really nice especially with the M labels...Before you give your review of Thorshammers fitment with the sideskirts, you should have yours installed first to see about which has better fitment!!! We will all wait to see what your outcome of modifications will be with your OEM M3 sideskirts...I hope you get them to look as good as the M-force ones! BTW Thorshammers first pic is before the sideskirts installed....Which picture are you referring to as fitment issues?

Received replacement set of side skirts from MFD and installed them today. Better fit than before but still not OEM replacement perfect fit. No bulges or sides sticking out with these. Front part of side skirt still not staying popped in place so BMW Betalink-K1 glue it was. There was probably a reason both of the last 2 sets came with a roll of 3M tape in the boxes. At least no splitting and cracking in fiberglass this time. Nice idea and would be 100% great if just met the advertised "OEM swap out fitment". 6 months into this and multiple times taking stuff on and off...stick a fork in me. I am done.
