I was at HP Autowerks this morning to pick up some parts for my car since Harold is parting out his 135i and I saw the 1M with the front lip.

The quality looked amazing and they weren't joking when they said it was made in the US. You could easily see it in the weave quality. I have numerous carbon fiber bits on my car from real CF eye lids to fake CF grill and the weave looked much better than the real CF chinese eye lids.

The lip was also extremely sturdy since Harold pushed on it pretty hard and it moved the whole car without the lip even flinching.

Also whoever designed it did a great job since it flowed with the car extremely well.

Sorry no pics, will let Harold handle that when it is time.

We will be exclusive distributor for US and most likely the Americas. I may be able to ship to Europe if there is not a distributor there already.

Harold if it ain't to much of a hassle could you check if there is a retailer in EU

Otherwise as soon as we know how much $$$$ (and if I don't get blown off my socks!)+ I wanna make sure it will get here in 1 piece, i'll order one as shown on the pics above. We do have some very nasty speeddowners overhere and I figure there wount be to much free groundspace left! Btw how thick is it?

Thanks

This lip is almost ready to go on sale, we are simply waiting for some photos to be processed.

There will be no pre-orders since 4 units will be finished by the end of this week and 4 more will be done next week.

How far below underside of front bumper does it extend, i.e. by how much does it reduce road clearance?

Thanks.
