new mod! Alternative to paying for a diffuser...

alpinweiße92///M3 · 04-20-2009, 12:04 PM

So my friend who is a painter gave me the idea, at first I say nah.. no way.. I'm not going painting shyt on my $64,000 car but then I gave it some though and said to hell with it, seems like a good idea lets do it.. whats the worst that could happen, I'll just have him respray the bumper and that'll be it.. but turns out I like it alot, let me know what y'all think...

with our new '09 328 (great car)

Also thanks to Simon at RENNspec for my CF emblems!

looks great bro!

SlammedR8 · 04-20-2009, 12:11 PM

not too bad, i would need to see it in person to make the final call!

Looks good in pics, reminds me of the M TECH bumper on 335s

it does look even better in person, I think you'd defintiely give it the "ok" if you would see it in person.. especially at night

Also, don't know if you guys noticed but I recently did a custom straight pipe exhaust and W O W it sounds amazing, better than any exhaust I have heard for e92 M3 yet, honest.. I will be posting clips soon.. it sounds like a z06 and an F430 mixed together

Epacy2 · 04-20-2009, 12:13 PM

Not bad at all!

gixxer_kidd · 04-20-2009, 12:28 PM

i was thinking about doing this as well. i think it looks good. if you could smooth out those two fang looking things that come up from the lower portion to the middle of the bumper i think it would look even better.

btw, is that painted jet black?

chris s · 04-20-2009, 12:28 PM

Nice...definitely a good alternative.

Kev · 04-20-2009, 12:50 PM

nice, something different

SHADY1 · 04-20-2009, 01:13 PM

You got my vote guy

its a good thing you don't have the factory exhaust because if it was on it would be a different story

IND-Distribution · 04-20-2009, 01:18 PM

Looks good. We were going to try that on a local car here.

endofanera7 · 04-20-2009, 03:14 PM

fuck that looks good!

I just got a piece of Vorsteiner Type II diffuser and it fits like sh!t....

MMMorish · 04-20-2009, 03:16 PM

To each their own but I'm not feelin' it.

DoNDoN · 04-20-2009, 03:19 PM

I actually think that looks really good. It does remind me of the M Tech bumper which I absolutely love.

tightie · 04-20-2009, 03:27 PM

reminds me of mtech but it looks good alex

McLuVan · 04-20-2009, 03:46 PM

well, fitment really matters to me.. and they all fit like shit (IMO)

I'd rather spend money on something more useful like suspension, ssk, etc...
