Front lip

Has anyone seen this? Or got one? Seems a bit pricey though...

wow, its even more than the Slek lip (and I thought that was overpriced!)

Nice and glossy, stupidly expensive though...

It's like looking at the sun.... that watermarking is too intense for my eyes. LOL

I really like the concept. Inspired by the 1M version no doubt. However it extends out way too far and should be thinner (height wise, should be 50% or so)... just my 2c.

I know of a company in W.A. which make front lips for various vehicles... Rey, do you want to be the first to tailor make your own e82 lip with this company? Haha. They'd do a GB if we have enough numbers (I know this since I enquired previously for another car. Cost is roughly $200-300+ depending on style, material used and GB numbers). Anyways, that can be another thread if we want. PM me if you like the idea, Rey.

The front extends out by too much, Siek ones are better.

What are the middle 2 holes for? Additional cooling?

Custom made GB sounds like an idea!

Sticks out too much
Too tall....

a 'lite' version of that (i.e. 50% of everything) would look the goods!

Everybody is right it should be less pronounced but the placement of the holes is a nice way to make the transition on the OEM bumper less obvious but after seeing the price it no longer is that nice.

Fitment wasnt spot on but pretty damn good with use of screws and 3m tape. I'll get some more pictures soon, theres very minimal difference between this and icarbon, only difference is price and cf is a little on the lower quality but for what i paid im pretty damn happy.

Here it is
