I think it fits perfectly on the 135i and I dont think it's to bulky if anything makes the 135i look more aggressive...

It looks very nice the only thing i don't like is seeing the seems of the lip but that's unavoidable it seems. Is there a place or method in getting rid of it perhaps?
btw random question, do you guys suppose the lip would look good on a sedona red or crimson red? |

It can be molded in, but then you run the risk of cracking it if you smack into a curb or steep driveway. I would love to see it in those colors |

ahh! im so jealous! Someone got this lip installed on an AW car!
I like it, but im not too sure I like the seams on the sides, I think it needs to be molded/blended to look 1 piece with the factory bumper and it would look even better imho. What material is it made of? Fiberglass? ABS Plastic? Poly?

I like it, I had a chance to see the full Hartge 135 at SEMA this past week and it is truly a work of art. Hartge makes a solid setup for this vehicle and I only wish I had a chance to drive it.
Hartge's fit and quality is spot on, equal to what you would expect from a factory upgrade. |

The fitment of the lip is real good. HARTGE sends a tube of urethane to mount the lip to the bumper, but I did not want to permanently attach it. So I had the body shop use 3M tape. So it is not as tight as with the urethane but still fits nice. The lip itself is made of poly. I will post a better pic of the center section mounting points.
