Aero lip? - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

E92_SID · 03-26-2008, 02:33 PM

Hey do any of you guys have the lip? I havnt seen it on any local cars yet. I really want to get it but I already scratch the bottom of the front of my car all the time so i am scared that it would just get all messed up right away.

I have seen one with it here, montego blue, and it looks nice. I am like you though, and concerned about damaging it since it sticks out even more, so I actually decided against it.

its not too bad. the aero lip is the cheapest and make the car looks 100% better. being in denver, i would recommend clear braing the lip.

Have not seen one. I am going to do the Vortsteiner CF lip.

Speaking of improving the looks, I have done some really easy minor stuff so far: painted body color front fender reflector replacements, black roundel covers, and debadging.

On a thread-jack note: I found a mechanical shop in Littleton that specialized in German car mods. They are going to install my KW V3. But they want $650 + alignment. Seem high??

I got one bro, car is sapphire black too so you should get a feel of how it looks. I think it looks sexy but the problem is you have to go kinda slow goin up bumps and inclines because you WILL bottom out, colorado roads are terrible.
