Here's mine. I'm thinking of painting the black plastic and mirrors the body color.

Was wondering if anyone has put the CF stick on plates on the back aero bumper. That ugly silver one I have really needs to be replaced by somethings black and grey like CF or something less silver.

A German, non-BMW kit

Here is a different rear sort of aero kit just fitted... from www.tuner-shop.com This is a German outfit with a very responsive and helpful owner. Not usually an exporter but he did it for me. They also sell reasonably priced front and side skirts.

Plastics are excellent with similar flex properties to new - these are not fiber glass. I particularly like the more authentic cut-outs with genuine screens. The overall look is of a lowered car - which it is not...

Cheers

Here's the Aero side sills... I'm not a huge fan of the Aero bumpers. I'm sure many of us had the same thought when we first saw the rear bumper... "Stickers? WTF?"

He was selling it for 279 Euros or about US $350 plus shipping. Even with shipping to Australia it was a pretty good deal!

I am more than likely to get the skirts and the rear bumper for my car. I think the guys at M7 were in the process of making a rear grill for the aero kit. Granted some cutting sanding and painting would be needed, but I think it would be worth it. I was thinking of something like this to jazz up the front:

How did you manage to keep the chrome trim around the mesh grills? That's the look I wanted, but couldn't see it done without MAJOR dremel work.

Dang, that red/red looks great. I think that's what I would have gotten if the M3 wasn't red with red leather!

Apparently the listing is no longer on the site, but here is a view of the rest of the kit - front and sides from one of their promotional photos (I left off the extraneous beautiful lady with nothing on ). The front gives the car a more pronounced lower jaw - almost a Porsche look me thinks... side skirts similar to Aero but without the "intake"... just a bit different all around without being over the top. Cheers.
