I'm Tempted, What Does Everyone Think?

teaston · 02-18-2015, 05:04 PM

I like the look, without the impracticality of the bottom/middle bit that reduces ground clearance:

go for it

F30AM · 02-18-2015, 05:08 PM

Sorry, but in a word: VILE.

JustChris · 02-18-2015, 05:12 PM

Yup really nice, will show up well on yours and set of the wing mirrors, a certain yes!

Agree on the ground clearance, actually not losing much or anything as there are those aero flaps underneath the front valence.

So pretty mixed opinions so far!

I don't really like them on the white, but think they'll look better on EB2 as it's not such a colour contrast.

dubdemand · 02-18-2015, 05:45 PM

Don't think that picture does them justice - will look better on EBII for sure!

I can't find any pics of them on EB though, or any other colour for that matter!

JustChris · 02-18-2015, 06:00 PM

EBII and carbon is all win, loved my M235i look.

dopper99 · 02-18-2015, 06:39 PM

Save your money.

You'd have a rear smooth finish diffuser and front carbon fibre front splitters. Too blingy.

geordiepaul · 02-19-2015, 01:36 AM

It looks like the bottom bit has fallen off. No likey

Agreed. Would be a miss match of finishes, why not trade the diffuser for a carbon one too? Probably get back what you paid for the matte one you have now.

1 more not a fan vote here, save your $$'s.

Kal101 · 02-19-2015, 02:33 AM

Did look at them myself. But went for the front splitter.

Do look good but I didn't want the cf look. Only other ones similar I could find were ACS but pricey !!!

SkyJawa · 02-19-2015, 03:20 AM

Don't like or see the point, doesn't really do much the standard bumper doesn't anyway, other than be carbon.

M Perf looks way better IMHO.

Wow thanks!

Think I'll give them a miss due to popular demand then!

F30Andy · 02-19-2015, 06:32 AM

That just looks wrong.

A very halford sort of thing.

RalphyBMW · 02-19-2015, 06:39 AM

I've toyed with the idea of these; aside from anything else they would protect the lowest parts of the bumper from kerbs, in a sacrificial sort of way.
If you don't like the carbon you could just spray or wrap in matt black?

I think they look fairly OEM, these special edition M3's came out of the factory with them:
