Sorry for the delay. Just got home. Alright, so I have some good and bad news. I'll begin with the bad, so I did meet up with my friend as planned, but the mock up i made was about 1 1/2" to long. I made the mock up based off a measurement a friend had given me. He was way off because he didn't measure it with the angle of the mounting bolts. So that's the bad.

The good, i got the correct measurements. Now i can go into CAD and draw the correct size. (doing that after I finish this post). I'd understand if you guys may be annoyed by that, but it's been difficult finding a friend with an e92, willing to meet up with me. Tomorrow i'll post the CAD drawing of the actual correct fin and I'll photoshop it on his car again. It's going to look the same as the last photoshop image I made. Just now it'll be scaled correctly. With any design you sometimes have to go through a few iterations. I'm going to laser cut the mock up out of museum board and test fit this Saturday. He assured me that he's free all day. So if everything lines up perfect all the fins will be cut on Sunday. I just want to be transparent and honest with you all. If for any reason you feel like you want to back out, i'll happily return your deposit. This mix up has only delayed the process 1 day. Feel free to ask me any questions.

This is a mock up i had to make for the 4 series. Just wanted to show you the process. It's a 1/4" short from the wheel well but i'm adjusting the drawings tonight as well. That's why I make the mock ups first. Lets me make the proper adjustments before I cut the CF sheet.



No worries bro take ur time. As long as they come out fitting perfect I don't mind the wait.

Thank you! Trust me i'll continue to adjust them until the size and fit is perfect. I have the e90s,f30s,f32s,f36s, all dialed in. Just finalizing the e92s.


screen shot of the cad file with the proper measurements. Getting it cut today out of museum board to test fit tomorrow.


A render of the fin. I'll keep updating you guys and tomorrow i'll post pics of the mock up on the e92 to show you the fitment. We're almost there guys. Again thanks for your patience.

UPDATE FOR E92 GUYS



Here's the mock up I made to finalize the fitment and look. There's definitely a lot of R&D that goes into these. I'm not really a believer in "universal fitment" when it comes to custom parts. All of the 4 types of models i'm doing are all different. That is the way it should be though. I'll be able to write notes of anything I need to change or adjust. After i'll take it into CAD and fix the drawings so tomorrow i'll be ready to go. Again I appreciate all your patience but after tonight everything will be fixed. Cheers!

UPDATE
Alright guys sorry for the delay but I had a family emergency and I haven't been able to get on my computer. So i'm finally done with all the research and since I wasn't able to get to the office today i'll be cutting them tomorrow. All sets have been reserved. Here's some photos for the e92 guys.

This is the fin off my car that I redrilled the holes for e92. I made some adjustments with the final drawing, so that everything lines up perfect. All the drawings are finished and tomorrow all the sets will be cut. Waiting for all the bolts and nuts to arrive (estimated delivery for them 5/18). In the mean time I will be cutting the brackets and drilling all the holes for the mounting locations. As soon as I receive the hardware i'll begin putting them together and ship them out. My guess is by this coming Thursday i'll be begin shipping them out. Let me know if you guys have any questions. Thanks again guys for being patient. Perhaps I was a bit to ambitious when I decided to try and make some for several different series, but the difficult part is done. I'll keep updating you guys through out the process.
