    Not a BMW
    From what I remember that is a real Zeemax widebody with some RD rims.
    Clear Corners and Tires are not considered a modification.

    widebodyM3's car, very nice.

    One of only a few known Zeemax Widebody M3's in the US. Very rare. One of the last known drivable ones, others were wrecked. Other than the $30k widebody, and the $6k rims, the car is pretty much just bolt on's. Very nice car indeed though.

    I just found the kit, it is $4,000 (equivalent) directly from Zeemax, or 2341.00 pounds Sterling to be exact.

    those are the nicest fenders I've ever seen for a wide body, much nicer then the rieger fender flare add-ons.

    I still like the rieger front more then the zeemax kit though.

    just my $0.02

    Yeah, but, you can just get the fenders from Zeemax, then do the Rieger front and whatever kind of spoiler you want in the rear. Check out their site, www.zeemax.com and see the pricelist, it's really not that bad when you compare the quality of that kit, versus some of these kits for our ricer friends and their CRXs, ya know... I'm definitely hooked.

    Don't forget about the labor and paint costs to have that kit installed properly/professionally.

    I'm not too worried about the body shop pricing. I repaint my front end almost yearly to get rid of stone chips. Let's just say I get group buy pricing.

    Remember, the prices on their website are for the Great Britian market, not the U.S.

    Go to www.extremebodyconversions.com and email Ed.

    Bumpers run about $700-750 last time I talked to him, and about $500 for the side skirts I believe. Thats for the slimline, not too sure about the widebody.

    Yeah I talked to Ed, they want like 8-9 grand for the full install with parts. I'll just order from England, do the installation by myself, and save 6 grand.

    I have seen this Black widebody in person and I must say the quality of the parts and craftsmenship is at or above OEM BMW quality.

    I have a friend who ordered parts from England, and he's been waiting for 3 months.

    Just be careful. I'm in the Importing business and can tell you first hand that it's quite easy to get screwed when dealing overseas unless you have the time and resources to go after people.

    Also, unless you have some shipping discounts, shipping those huge bumpers will be quite expensive.

    The difference in price might not be worth the risk.

    Just a thought.
