Which front lip in carbon - survey - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

timzerofive · 09-13-2005, 03:35 AM

Hey guys, I'm buying a front lip and having a friend of my making a molding from it and make a carbon fiber one for me. Now it was suppose to be a one-off thing but I figure I can try to find a few people on this forum that would be interested in it also and spreading the cost out more. I was originally getting the Hamman lip, but in order to get more people to join in, I just want to know which lip everyone's more interested in.

I'm buying the lip first and paying my friend for the tooling first, so no one has to drop a dime or make a commitment yet, but if you want to help me out, thats fine too. I'm placing the order sometime this week, so depending on when the lips are coming in, they should be able to crank it out for me within 2 months. So lets all take a survey, I'm votingn for Hamman first of course, you guys let me know asap. Leave a thread on top of voting if you are really serious about this.

... oh to add a note, the two lips most likely to be made are Hamman or Hartge, as the other lips has a lot of grooves and will be difficult to make well cosmetically, according to my friend.

Hamman

Hartge

Breyton

Mattig

AC Schnitzer

i think the hartge is the best looking

timzerofive · 09-13-2005, 10:00 PM

btt, need more feedback.

lxapilot118 · 09-13-2005, 10:22 PM

I'm interested in the Hamann or Hartge...please email me with details

EVO_S4 · 09-13-2005, 10:54 PM

What about Alpina, but from those choice is Hartge

JBimmer · 09-13-2005, 11:12 PM

The Hartge is nice, but I don't think it will look right in carbon because the color will not blend into the bumper. On the other hand, I think the Hamann will look excellent in carbon as it seems to attatch below the bumber like a splitter rather than trying to blend in with the bumper. Either way, thanks for taking the initiative and trying to get this done. Any ballparks on potential cost?

I like the Hartig - where do I sign up?

Cost wise, it really will depend how many people decides to go for it. I can give you guys a more precise cost after they make it for me.
