oppinions

[Juber]

ok i have £1k to spend on my car at the end of this month, now what do i get? need your help...

I wanted CSL boot, different front bumper and some GTR skirts but, i think i have the CSL boot covered @ the mo so weyl leave that out for now.....

So bumper wise do i get ........

1, CSL Rep
2. OEM M3 with Strassenser lip
3 . Reiger CSL rep (as lee330 had on his 330)

whats your oppinions? ant other choices?

With regards to the side skirts, the GTR skirts are flipping expensive is there any reps or ones similar / better out there?

Many thanks..

[M5 SC]

Hey mate, tough choice but i'd go for the OEM M3 with Strassenser lip, tough call between that and CSL front bumper but i think the M3 with lip would be very nice, that look will never go out of fashion!

Skirts not sure on at the moment but that front end with the M3 bumper/lip and CSL boot would look the bolloxs!!!

2. OEM M3 with Strassenser lip

If you go down this route, you have to, have to... get the Lip put on the unpainted bumper, and then mould them together, so they look like once piece, SICK!

a few on Fanatics have done it, and it looks SICK!

Juber, I think some M3 mirrors should be purchased as well.

M3 with Strass lip!

Looks the absolute bollox!

What do the side skirts look like?

[Mud]

whats your oppinions?

Well my "oppinions" is that you can't spell for shit!

[PAUL ///M3]

OEM + Strass , sorted !

[PAUL ///M3]

OEM + Strass , sorted !

[lee330sport]

Id go for a CSL rep and M3 skirts.

The reiger CSL that i had is way to low, in the end there was nothing left of it.

[Raja_SMGII]

OEM + Strass for me too - some M3 mirrors as well. Car is coming along very nicely Juber :)

[huzi7]

oem and strass lip bro :cool:

[mike 318is]

OEM + Strass

but the reiger CSL bumper does look good , but only on a m3, needed the phat arches

[MEGA]

Well my "oppinions" is that you can't spell for shit!

hahahaha :D

[Auryn]

how about going for something completely different like the eurowerks kit or something like that?
Or have a word with Roy & see what he's got thats different

[girlpower]

Good luck Juber with the decision. Let us know which one you go for! :)

[Individual One]

Hi Juber, Looking at the two photos, I would go for the OEM + Stress LOOKS:cool:

The mans got a point, see if there's anything that hasn't been done before, although to be fair, with the colour of your car it's all going to look good. How about spending some of the money to get your dodgy lights sorted??

Thats sorted mate. I did abit of Juber mechanics and took it apart and cleaned it and it worked a treat! :D:D:D:D

Thanks for your input guys, i always wanted the M3 bumper & strass lip, but its alot of £££££ because IIRC you HAVE to get the carbon carrier too! :( thats just too expensive :(

[felstmiester]

I think the rieger rep looks the nuts, but as Lee said, its not that practical. Go for the M3 with strass lip mate.

[sjj84]

Somebody was talking about M3 bumpers the other day regarding the carbon carrier and not needing it with certain age cars. I think it was the post called BMW Breakers.

Yeah, that was me and Luke. So i'v heard, the early bumpers are the ones that are less hastle to fit on a non M3.

[B19 LBP]

yeh when i was looking into fitting a m3 front bumper, i spoke to roy and he told me that the early 3 series can use there own carrier to fit an m3 bumper but would be best to speak to roy :D

[rahrah]

what ever you do decide to do will look good i reckon, not one bad option i think.

[CA Automotive UK]

also ...Lumma tuning do some nice side skirts, similar in principle to the GTR design but far cheaper .....

[M111PDM]

good luck with what ever you decide but i dont think out of your 3 choices you will pick a bad one

[Stock323iSaloon]

I`d go with Teddy`s CSL reps and keep it OEM looking but still very rare.

[Juber]

also ...Lumma tuning do some nice side skirts, similar in principle to the GTR design but far cheaper .....

Nice!!! :cool: Any ideas on costs and also would you have any pictures Mr Royston? :)

Thanks for the input all. I need 2 try and bag my self a 2nd hand M3 bumper somewhere!!!!

[peppernick]

Call me conservative but with an M-Tech front bumper, Hamann add-on lip still rulez :cool:

[M111PDM]

Call me conservative but with an M-Tech front bumper, Hamann add-on lip still rulez :cool:

i must agree that does look good so you have another option now as well

[M5 SC]

Or you could go for what i had on my old 328ci...

Think someone was about to show you this pic!!! sorry mate!

[M5 SC]

Thats a Reiger M3 bumper with Hamann replica fog covers and Reiger front splitter/lip.

[BigFas]

Call me conservative but with an M-Tech front bumper, Hamann add-on lip still rulez :cool:

There's also the Araquay front lip to fit your M-tech bumper with or without the Strass style carbon leading edge.

JEEEEESSSUUSSSS! $500! Thats a lot of dough! :o
Have you dealt with them before by any chance Blue Bro? I hate buying things abroad just in case! :o

[Mud]

Need to see more pics of the thing, I mean you can make a dog turd look good with the right lens and photoshop.

uve tested that knowing you & your camera lol :p

BUT Agree with Mud MORE PICS!!! :D:D :D:D:D

Dude, wrt the Strassentech lip (that Teddy and Bluebro also have on), I'm about to replace mine if you want a cheaper second-hand option (but it looks second-hand too, just so you know). No biggy either way, just thought I'd give you a heads-up if you were sweating over price.

Dan im 110% interested!
Is it cracked or any thing? ? Want to give ya bumper and carbon brace away too lol

[Chaos]

Hehe yeah sure, have my ICE too, go on. :D

Yeah it's got 2 small cracks where some donkey left a loose kerb hidden in a car park space and some gravel rash courtesy of 2 autobahn blasts through Belgium, but then I don't want much for it so it's a case of looking good from a distance for peanuts or looking good close up for more wedge - entirely your call buddy. The respray will sort the painted part out, just be a case of whether you try to re-lacquer the carbon or just leave it - tbh you can't see it until you look for it close-up. Can hook up easy enough so you can get a proper look at it first, no bother. If it saves you some cash for other bits then it's all good.

[Mud]

What you getting in replacement Dan?

[BigFas]

Jubber, get Dans, and I will give you the BEST idea in the world for what to do with it. 110% serious

[CA Automotive UK]

side skirts by Lumma (255/pair), as requested sir ! :)

also skirts by seidl tuning after...

[BigFas]

Now THOSE are some sideskirts!

[felstmiester]

Now THOSE are some sideskirts!
Yeah, they look a lot deeper that the standard ones. Or are they?

[Juber]

If they are lower than the standard sports ones then ile have a set soon!! :cool:

I dont want by front bumper being low with the splitter then the skirts a step up higher if you see what i mean!

Thank you for the pics Roy!

[Chaos]

I think I know what Fas is gonna suggest, and if I'm right then he's right, it's a top idea cos I was toying with it myself after he said it. :)

I'm just replacing it like for like, Mud. I like the subtle look of the front end with it and if I go for a more aggressive drop then the ride height becomes unmanageable on back roads and speed bumps etc.

Was you bidding for an m3 bumper on ebay Juber?

[bluebro]

Christ Juber, you don't hang about mate! I thought this thread was on opinions of what to buy at the end of the month, not 3 days later!!! :eek:

[Juber]

LOL it had to be done Bluebro lol Im soooo impatient lol, thanks for your help & PM's about splitter suggestions mate, that was much apprecieated... Next up i need is a CSL boot. :D And i WILL deffo have one by end of Feb.

Feltmiester - I got it from a friend who has a breakers up West Brom. a tad more expensive than what you would find of ebay but i cant be fussed with all that bidding crap. I think its a fix most of the time because thease sellers blatently get their mates to bid the price higher....

I will probs go for the Hamann GTR Skirts because they just look too good!

[Moe]

Arquary is what i want to get on my car lol juber your car will look stunning with the planned mods!! once i get a set of wheels i will get the lip and as juber said you had any dealing with the arquary supplier blue bro ???
