I have heard of ppl returning the bumper because they think it does not fit extremely easy modification by the way which it just requires you to clip/cut the air ducts about 2-3 inches back in order to accommodate the M3 rep bumper. Piece of cake, took me 5 minutes to do.

I replied to your PM. To everyone else, if you do take this to a shop and you tell them that it is an M3 bumper do not let them tell you that you need the M3 mounting bracket, they will assume it does because of the brake air ducts not fitting with this bumper. You do not need the M3 bracket, you simply need to clip the brake air ducts.

My pleasure.
I can't wait to get home and receive the paint so I can start painting. In the mean time, I spotted a "vehicle" that can make track days fun 1990 Porsche March Last edited by GreekMaverick; 09-22-2013 at 02:20 PM.. |

Paint JUST got in
Had my hands full today, had to take off the procede clean the Gray connections and re-install. On my way home from work yesterday, out of the blue while cruising in traffic "2CF6" Error code came on, it has to do with the throttle valve potentiometer, in my case TVP 1. It's all fixed now, will probably start the painting on the bumper tonight.

Painting was EASY
1) Started with the Plexus anti-static to ensure that DUST will stay away (AND IT DID) 2) Primed it, left it to dry and scuffed it to make the surface smooth. 3) Applied basecoat, 2.5, 12oz cans 4) Applied 2K Clearcoat 1.5 Hours work

Mod my 3, was my the place I was going to get this from. They had it (still have it) for: 350 plus 120 for shipping = 470 I paid: 349.99 with free shipping. But I had to get the included harness for the fog conversion which cost me another 9 dollars. so I saved 110.00
