It's a custom one. If it's a 3d design lip, there is a gap or whatever it calls between the bumper and lip.

^ that's why i asked if it's the 3d-design lip molded onto the bumper.
i also found this car which seems to have a similar set up: http://www.studie.jp/owner/owner06/owner-406.html in the google translation, it says: "The front face which becomes left and right 40mm wide processing the 3D lip, setup." i'm assuming it's saying the 3d-design lip was molded onto the m-tech bumper. the one on the neez car is different. the bottom portion of the bumper is taller. so any info on the bumper on the neez e90? really sweet bumper!

There are plenty of lightweight wheels around.
Even some of the cheap cast wheels are going to come in at 15lbs, but it really doesn't say much, about the wheel in general. The key issue here should be the strength to weight ratio. A Neez single block 8000ton die-forged wheel is going to be far superior in strength to weight ratio. As a single block of aluminum is forged to the final shape (rather than cast or even forged into a round block and later cut into spokes) under 8000 tons of stress, the natural grains in the aluminum are going to align outward along the spokes and into the rim (barrel)section. This allows the wheels to have superior torsional strength across the width of the wheel, which is essential in high speed corners. This is where a lot of the 3-piece wheels will come in short with the pieces held together by bolts and welds, which may lead to cracking or simple fracture due to fatigue. This high strength to weight ratio will be easily evident when you drive off with the Neez wheels. Improved braking, acceleration and cornering should be realized as soon as you put the wheels on. |

But I do admit these NEEZ wheels look sweet. If I had the money, I'd order a set...they look very sporty and classy at the same time. |

it is @ USD 5000 odd. I still will settle for Neez rims as the comments made by lee that they are strongest, firmest is all valid. Japanese rims have extremely stringent QC controls. Even normal rims made by Japanese companies way surpasses alot of other more expensive makes interms of weight and strength. Even after market parts like extractors and headers are alot better quality than most parts made in USA and Europe. I have seen this myself. Which explains that if there is no good replicas being made or the price of the Neez rims remain similar to todays pricing, i would get a Volks Progressive ME rims. Cant settle for less than that.

JWL+R is a standard created by Rays only. Basically same as JWL with additional testing. Neez, Rays, Works and BBS Japan all manufacture excellent high quality, light-weight wheels for track use. Most of the ISO standard are similar at a Japanese forged foundry, in this case, all the brands above uses hydralic 8000 tons forging press.
