Really sorry for making this thread but I've been searching for a while and can't find anything.

I know it was posted here I remember seeing it about a year or so ago. The bumper looked like an e36 m bumper (it may have been a little longer) and had a cut out above each fog light that went from the outside of the fog to the inside of the brake duct. I believe I saw it on an imola e36 touring. Can't find it though. Anyone know what bumper I'm talking about?

If I remember correctly it was pretty sick(the reason I'm trying to find it) the person that posted it said it was made by a european company and was rather rare....

one of the rarest. if I'm not mistaken, unlike M3 bumper, this is in fact not an actual bumper but just a cover of the stock bumper?? is that right? i could be wrong...

it actually reminds me of an old racing dynamics bumper. but i think you are right in saying it isnt an actual bumper. you have to use a stock bumper cut it up and mold/attach this addition to it.

Apparently I should have purchased this last month when it was $90. I guess they're in production again and so the price has gone up it seems

Red car's bumper is kind of silly IMO. Bit too many vents going on. I do like the wheels though.

MSport bumper looks nice, never seen it before (at least never noticed it before).

i do believe that the m sport front i put up, is actually hte bumper cover. so you take off the old cover, and attach this one. just like you would installing the real m3 front bumper.

If you're talking about the one I posted, then no. It actually goes over on top of the existing non-m bumper. The molding trim covers the edge of the bumper so it all looks like one piece.

pretty sure it a different one than the one you post. cause a lil while back they had a picture of it of the car, and it was just like the m3 kit.

Look at the picture that I posted (bumper's upside down) and the picture of the silver car. It's got the same small slit int he middle. Come to think of it, both almost looks like an m5 bumper. I know they're not, just saying it kinda reminds me of it.

I like the idea of making those cut outs. I wonder if the guy followed through with the idea or someone else maybe. :devillook I wouldn't mind giving it a shot.

Those side skirts are pretty sick too. Any info on those or are they photo shoped as well?
