haha thanks for all the comments guys. unfortunately, i have gone back to my original SGM for various reasons. mainly because the vinyl was a hassle and it gave me too much unwanted attention =\

it held up well for a while. didnt really change color except for near the fenders where brake & tire dust would accumulate. easy to wash and take care of though.

now that i've taken it off, i miss it =[ haha. maybe it'll make a return one day

hey where did you get your front lip, I have been trying to find that exact one. I have only seen a few on the e90's and I can't seem to find any for sale. It's the only thing I need for my car to complete the look I am going for

lol yes definitely. drove me crazy how it'd get dirty a few days after a full wash
