E90 front bumper w/ molded Hartge lip and AMG style side vents

came across this bumper.... looks like a regular E90 front bumper with the Hartge lip molded on... and it has side vents.... now when i initially looked at it, i thought it could be cool, because its a little like an AMG frotn bumper... but im not sure... it isnt expensive and is being sold locally... i was thinking about maybe picking one up and putting it on just to see what it looks like... i already have a Hartge front lip, so if it doesnt work out, i would just put my old bumper and hartge lip back on....

so, i think it will come out looking one of two ways... either more aggressive(in a nice looking way) OR very ricey, and ...


what do u guys think??? should i try it or not???

Hmmmm it might look pretty cool I think...definitely different but not too OTT. I think your car should be able to pull it off given your wheels and stance.

How much? Material?

bumper is $200, and is made out of fibreglass and resin...

it might look best on AW because you will notice the side vents less....

$300 shipped to USA and everywhere else in canada...

i think this would look great on AW with white vorsteiner hood with unpainted vents.... would look mad aggressive IMO

I think that bumper could look sick on a car with other aggressive looking mods

I'm sorry, but you've got the wrong bumper......The one shown on the AW E90 is a Hamann replacement bumper, nothing remotely close to the one shown above.........Sorry to burst your bubble......

FWIW, I would skip that Hartge molded bumper and just stick with what you have.....the side vents on the bumper looks a bit ricey........Just my .02

Since you already have a Hartge lip, wouldn't it be easier to mold your existing setup?
