Curious if anyone has purchased this exact one and how was the quality.

i saw that the other day, and figured for the $90 I'd just buy it and try it.

Honestly, for $90, it's worth a shot. I picked up an mtech lip off ebay last year and fitment is pretty goddamn good. No complaints for the price I paid.

Would you say it's most likely comparable to the side skirt splitters sold on eBay out of the same material that look wavy if not installed correctly?

Also I know it'll just get beat up hence why I thought about it instead of ruining a CF one

mojobmw_e90 · 09-02-2015, 04:56 PM

They are flimsy. Even when installed it looks wavy as it just plastic that was drawin on a big piece of plastic and than cut out

tturbolife · 09-02-2015, 09:36 PM

I also bought one, it is indeed very flimsy and like mojo said it just looks like wavy plastic under the car :/

General consensus not worth it!

zero2sixtyZ · 09-03-2015, 10:37 AM

Does it at least meet the end of the bumper near the wheels? I'd consider buying one as a core, then overlaying carbon fiber over it (not vinyl, actual CF).

How has the paint held up? I got an mtech lip from ebay and had it painted but I'm debating whether to apply a coat of paint protector to prevent rock chips

What I would like to find is somebody who makes an Arkym style front lip for a LCI Mtech bumper such as the one on my 335is but in PU that can be paint or wrap instead of a CF one. PU would be more forgiving than CF and the cost should also be lower too. I wouldn't feel as bad scraping over bumps with a PU lip versus a CF one.

I believe that's the cheapest for LCI that's not CF. They do have matte black ones for slightly cheaper but for pre lci.

EDIT* Sorry, I missed the PU part.

sudo4re · 09-07-2015, 07:31 PM

No FG appendages lol. They look cheap and are shatter prone.

I had it painted by a local shop that I go to for all my paint needs. So I can't speak to the eBay paint quality, sorry.
