M3 Style OR OEM Skirts ?
Looking for input if I should keep M3 Style Skirts OR go back to OEM ? I find OEM skirts gives the car more of clean smoother look.

I'm not sure many people realize this, but there actually 4 OEM type versions ........
OEM sport (factory installed to the 335i) OEM M aero (same as above, but these actually are lower w/ a slight flare) OEM M3 OEM M-Tech I have the M aero package. The skirts are maybe a 1/2" lower around, but retain the exact same style as the 335i OEM skirts. Last edited by ToadHollow; 10-20-2009 at 11:23 AM.. |

It's a package.
Side skirts, rear bumper, rear spoiler & front spoiler. Everyone seems to like the spoiler (which is what most of us have installed) & never realize it's part of the M aero package. Rear bumper & side skirts all sit lower to flow with the front spoiler. The M aero side skirts flare out a very very minimal amount in comparison to the M3 or M-Tech.

m3... counterpoint to the smooth lines above it and creates a pleasing dynamic tension, whereas with OEM, everything looks too smooth and rather inert, or bland... my .02

I like how the lines on the oem run up slightly and finish off flowing through the trunk line...
however since you do have a HM style lip I would keep the m3 skirts since the front starts off slightly more aggressive anyway. wish they made m3 rep (e90 style) skirts for non m3 e90s... |

Is your recommendation based on self serving motive ... If I do switch, I'll certainly will keep you in mind. BTW shipping from Toronto Canada to California is frigin pricey...

Have anyone seen PICs on the forum of AW E92 or E93 with H-Type front lip and M-Tech skirts ? The other option maybe Hamann, since my front lip and rear diffuser H-CF replicas

The M3 skirts look good, but for some reason, I think they look better on an aggressively-modified E92 coupe.
Do not go back to plain OEM skirts...too dull and boring. Do not get Hamann skirts...they don't flow smoothly with the lines of the car. M-Tech skirts (always go with the OEM M-Tech ones, not the replica ones) would be perfect for your car...flows smoothly and adds a nice touch of aggressiveness, too.
