New e90 M3 Bumper

Kiemyster · 07-24-2007, 09:37 PM

i say no for the fog lights, unless you hide it behind the mesh. fog lights take away that aggressive stance it holds

BavDom · 07-24-2007, 10:24 PM

We will consider the foglights, however, there is an easy way to avoid the error, you can hide the bulb and attach it behind the bumper.

Make 2 options

one WITH Fogs

one Without Fogs

Yep...that is true also. Just keep them plugged in, but hidden inside.

I would hope this bumper is that flexible plastic material (e.g., DVWP) or polyurethane, and not fiberglass, which cracks and chips easily. Also, the under side of the bumper should have holes that one can attach the plastic undercarriage to.

Chicken wire does the trick, but it would be nice if we could use the plastic mesh that actually will come with the real E90 M3.

I really like the look of that... I'm debating on getting the Kerscher again because I havent liked any other option out there but this might make me think twice ... its going to depend on price and fogs... I like having the fogs. But this definitely looks amazing. My only other thought would be... do I want to look like the M3 so much that when it comes out I am trying to be something I'm not? IDK.... thats the nice thing about the Kercher (for me) is its different and unique.

Avery · 07-25-2007, 11:48 AM

If my car was a true M3 then no fogs would of course be okay but since its not it would be great to have the fog light option. If anything to show I am not trying to fool anyone into thinking it’s a M3.

But then again it won't be out for at least a year and a half, so until then, your SOLID GOLD

Damn bavdom.. u guys are busy over there... how many projects are you guys working on at once?!?
i might put off my mtech for this... but it'll all be based on when it's avail since my mtech's coming in this/next week.

BeMyWife330i · 07-26-2007, 12:29 AM

avaibility aprox.?????

Kiemyster · 07-26-2007, 12:05 PM

when do you think you will be ready to ship these out? 2 months or so?if you dont supply this with foglights, thats no problem. what i think i will do is customize it myself and slip my fog lights behind the mesh and hold it up with some epoxy paste. so really, i think you should just sell it without, it looks beast-like, and if we want fogs, it should be fairly easy as a DIY.

omg516 · 07-26-2007, 04:41 PM

Damn that is gorgeous

I know what you mean! We kinda split things into two teams, one for cosmetics and the newly formed performance.

I've not posted the price yet, but expect something within the range of other kits

ejazbmw · 07-26-2007, 06:33 PM

eros613 · 07-26-2007, 09:56 PM
