M3 Replica bumper + replica LIP inside!

Anyone see this? Anyone have any info on the company, they seem to have a good rep on ebay.
They are selling a fulll M3 replica kit FR RR and Sides with lip. Interested to see if anyone will bite on this.

Its an awesome sign to see someone makes a lip to fit the replica bumper, i wonder if they sell the lip by itself?

I would probably contact the company myself. From my observation, I would say that the images might not be accurate because 1) That looks like a forum member's car and 2) One of the images (that shows the rear bumper with diffuser) is a Vorsteiner picture. lol so up to you

Good point, although if I can convince them to get the lip separate, and it fits, slot of forum members would be happy just for the lip

Nick, was there a reason why you guys stopped carrying the replica MSport front bumpers?? I'm really wanting one bad. Do you know how I can contact the manufacturer?

<--Such as this guy
I'm on a hunt for a lip that looks good for m3 rep bumper. Apparently there is some talk about one in the works but let us know what the ebay vendor says about this lip!

The type of lip on this kit is already available alone.
There is this one, though it is hell on ride clearance:

We carried and still carry the OE version, we can order it however it's fairly expensive when compared to the M3 style bumper.

...and again, I ask, why did you stop selling the REPLICA bumper kit? I'd prefer to save money, otherwise I'd just call Tischer. I know you USED to carry it. Why no more? And could you possibly put me in contact with the supplier of that replica part?

Just because the vendor has a good rating doesn't mean anything. The rating is based on what the seller describes the item as and how it is received by the buyer.

This does not include fitment.....the rating basically says, was the item received in the manner described?

If the auction doesn't say anything about fitment, then it will not be guaranteed.

How about emailing the seller asking for actual pics of the kit, installed and uninstalled? Also, is it polypropylene or fiberglass? VIS makes alot of fiberglass stuff, but I don't do glass bumpers.

We never sold a replica M-Sport for the E90, we only sold the OE M-Sport for the E90. We carry a replica of the M3 Style Bumper.

got email from them saying that the full kit is made by VIS, they don't know about the fitment, but saying that over 50 kit sold without issues(guess they are lying). anyway just make them a offer, i know fitment will not dead on but for 700 + less than 1000 paint and modified is still a good price.

So is it polypropylene or fiberglass? That's the biggest question...

Well, their feedback is excellent. Looks like the lip is molded into the bumper though, don't think I like that.

All body kits are made out of ( 7 layers Poly-Fiber Reinforced body kit, really strong, flexi & durable ), the strongest martial in the market, brand new, unpainted, primed & gel coated, simple installation, any body shop can install them ( By Using the Factory Bolts & Screws ).

That what it says in the description

I think they are fiberglass, cause the seller said those are vis product, and i saw other member posting those bumper for sale saying they are fiberglass and from the pic on those post, looks like all the clip and hole will fit the oem. But they all selling it instead of review, so u know why
