Red film over the orange, I did the same to mine.

Bumper looks good, what did you do with the fog lights?

edit: 2005 headlights or did you just de-orange the ones you had?

yeah i did, i used tint overlays and had a tint shop put them on.

dinan19 · 09-22-2011, 10:41 PM

I bought the factory z4M bumper from the dealer, and they dont have fog lights they have air ducts for the brakes, i had to purchase those too. also the headlights are 2005 headlights that i bought as well.

So did you disconnect the fogs or stuff them in the air ducts?

does this mount up to the non-m undercover and are the brake ducts necessary for the install?

I would think the M brake ducts ARE necessary for install.

misterawa · 10-09-2011, 11:50 PM

Looks good!!! What suspension are you running?

dinan19 · 10-16-2011, 10:00 PM

I forget what the offset is but its lower i know that, I am running H&R lowering springs, and no the brake ducts are not neccessary but they look way better installed. I'm selling it now to get an e46 m3, if anyone is interested let me know. I'm gonna attach some more pics.
