I'm not dancing around anything. I am not the manufacturer or the vendor selling this trunk so I have no idea what the final price is. I can't throw out numbers, so all I was told is that it would be around iCarbons trunk price.

No pricing has been set by the manufacture so until then no one knows what the retail price is. Not even us, their distributor.

Got asked today if the car came like this from BMW LOL.

Also noticed in my rear view mirror alot more people in cars behind me end up sitting up straight and trying to get a better look at the rear end of my car.

No new molds for now until the hood and trunk are finished and released.

Don't need to go to that extreme, just sell a few of wife's LV purses or Jimmy Choo shoes will do!

BMW86 · 11-27-2011, 01:45 AM

M3 hood? I'm in!

thez99 · 11-27-2011, 02:02 AM

I still feel they should keep the upper lip a bit more conservative like the ICarbon trunk, just looks too aggressive, I mean im not lookin for a ricey wannabe high ass spoiler, im looking for a slightly higher but integrated spoiler/trunk in CF

Everytime i see that it makes me feel like saying "batmobile"?

Personally love this design. Saw it in person yesterday on slek's 1m.

The CSL style trunk icarbon made doesnt go with a smaller cars like 135/1m. That CSL trunk was designed for a bigger body and copied into this car. The lines don't flow correctly.

When you look at this trunk in person, you can tell that the trunk fallows the body lines.

Cant wait for more pictures : ]

ooh btw, the hood is amazing. M3 style with no holes. Very clean look.

I actually had a random brand new 2012 335i stop me in a parking garage as I was getting out of the car and ask me "Who makes that trunk and where can I buy it?"

I have asked dozens of random people at local track events and meets that I have been to after putting my trunk on and my question is always "Is that trunk to aggressive?" None of the answers have been yes. All of them have stated something along the lines of it matches my mods well and it flows with the lines well. Then some looked at the Carbon and said it was one of the highest quality trunks they have seen and as close to OEM as you can get with aftermarket.

You have to see this trunk in person. Also like I said earlier this trunk may not work on a stockish looking car. For it to work best you need to have a well modded car and then it will work. It complements the SleK front lip extremely well.

Also for those that keep asking about the hood, I'm tired of the PM's so here is an official teaser!
