Vorsteiner Parts
Anyone know of a shop that has the Vorsteiner front lip and rear diffuser for the M-Tech kit E92. I have ordered mine from Zillion and have been waiting abt 22 weeks now when they were supposed to be delivered in 5 weeks. I just want to get them on my car and stop waiting.
And I have no response from Zillion and don't want to drive down there anymore. Otherwise I think I might just import the parts from the states. Any help would be great. I know that Monster had them in stock but I someone picked them up before me .... ![]() Thanks in advance |

Well unless there is a significant price difference between the states & HK, then I'd order it directly from the dates. I ordered most of my car parts of Europe and had them flown over.
Admittedly its a pain to have to pick it up from Tsing Yi where the freight's arrive, but it always arrives in 2-4 weeks which I think is way better cos you're ordering direct from the supplier. Can't see why it would take 22 weeks unless Vorsteiner themselves are out of stock. |

That's normal waiting period for Vorsteiner i guess. My hood arrive in 9 weeks after order.
Anyway we have a front lip and CSL trunk coming out for the E92 ^^. And we're local |

Hi 335 Freak and KenKen ... thanks again for all the help today. You guys were great. I will make a post on my experiences once I get my stock parts from Zillion and a refund for the supposed fake / real GIAC software. Anyway car is getting a stock reflash with 076 software at BMW now and then Targa Racing will install the GIAC stage 2 software. Thanks also to Eric - Head of GIAC asia for the direct phone call - nice guy. I am also ordering my Vorsteiner parts direct from the States right now after waiting almost 25 weeks for nothing.
Stay tuned for my long post on the whole situation. |

I would try Monster ... I got a good first impression of them the other day. The shop looks really good and really nice people. I will be taking my car to them in the future to do some work. Bodykit work will be done there.

Sorry to hear abt the fake GIAC and thx for giving everyone a heads-up abt Z****. I have been meaning to visit that shop for some upgrades, but I will probably stay away.

GUYS,GOOD LUCK WITH THOSE GARAGES WHICH MENTIONED ABOVE!
I'm still good with Zillion,but,well,everyone got their own opinions,just go ahead if you think other garages is really good for you.I've heard a ton of bad experiences of those FAMOUS GARAGES u guys mentioned from my friends who playing hard with mod. I wanted to keep my mouth shut,but I just cant see Zillion is as bad as you said. |

Go to Zillion at your own peril ... hopefully he will even pick his phone up. He always screens calls and never picks up his phone. That is not how to run a business. Anyway I will post a fair and detailed assessment of my experience when I get my refund and stock parts back. Funny thing is I am a pretty understanding person and this whole situation was a complete waste of my time. I work really hard and dont have the time to upgrade my car like in college - otherwise I would have done everything myself. I built my VW race car in college including a full engine rebuild in my living room. I have never had an experiene with a shop like this before.
My car was running horrible with the tune they gave me ... I really hope I have not hurt anything in my car. ![]() |

agreed +2.... The most horrible thing is the guy in Zxllxon lies to u from time to time - so UNPROFESSIONAL!!! In addition, they reli don't care abt your car and their reputation... Once I put my car to installl a body kit... the guy sent my car to Sheung Shui to get some cheap paint... ending up my new car got scratches and even insert running everywhere.... well... the worse thing is he doesn't even know where my car is and what is the status at all... I have to force him to give the contact of the painting garage and I call him myself!!!

I ordered the GIAC stage 1 and then 2 ... I don't know what tune I got - he said it was Giac s1 ... but it ran like a broken lawn mower. Then I thought it was a hardware problem and check everything including a pressure test. The boost was low and the consistency was all over the shop. So I decided to take it to the only GIAC distributor is town Targa Racing and check with them. And they said that it did not have the software installed and was some fake software. They then proceeded to check again with Eric the head of Asia GIAC and he said it is impossible to be installed and that the software was illegal. When I paid for the full software. The car was sputtering at high rpms and shotting flames out the exhaust ... anyway ... I will give a full assessment later.
I am still quite pissed off ... |
