m1xst5r · 05-20-2014, 01:46 AM

Hey. Just like the title says I need a front lip. Which is like the best brand or type

cuiter23 · 05-20-2014, 01:48 AM

Stock bumper?

m1xst5r · 05-20-2014, 07:03 AM

Yup

YA-91 · 05-20-2014, 08:22 AM

Hamann do some nice lips look them up

DuckySpud · 05-20-2014, 08:51 AM

Got a photo of your car? Hard to say without knowing which model or spec the car is. Also I think it depends on how aggressive the car is. A really aggressive lip on a stock car can make it look worse.

+1. If this is the case, OP should look into getting splitters instead.

m1xst5r · 05-20-2014, 10:49 AM

Just got this rear bumper.

m1xst5r · 05-20-2014, 10:50 AM

Nothing like a super aggressive m3 rep rear bumper on an otherwise stock e90 328 pre-lci...

Yea, I hope you have a lot planned to make that all work out together haha. I would say you are better off saving towards some new wheels and some sort of suspension changes to get it lowered, either springs if you're on a budget or coilovers if you have a bit more to spend.

However, if you do decide to get a front lip, I suggest getting the splitters for each side. I have them on mine and they improve the front massively! If you want to add to that, you can also add a Hamann or Kerscher style lip.

Here is mine currently, the front splitters and a custom lip (similar to the Kerscher)

This is one with the Hamann style lip, pinched this photo off Mario K.

335xi pre lci. And the only reason I replaced were due to accidents. I was happy stock. Just wanna good opinion. I don't wanna get some shit that might look good to me. But I wind up looking like the people with dragon stickers on their Hondas. Lol. Just saying.

Id cop a whole new bumper. Suspension too. But these roads in jersey. Too many potholes this year

I'd say save up for some new rims first man, it may not look right with all the body mods with those rims

Well Andrew. The thing is I got hit in a car accident. And I'm not going to be driving around in a banged up car. Rims I can cop at anytime. This needs to get fixed now.

m1xst5r · 05-26-2014, 09:27 AM

New bumper

m1xst5r · 05-26-2014, 09:28 AM

DuckySpud · 05-26-2014, 02:39 PM

Have you ordered a new bumper? I can't see any photo or links?

Oh I didn't catch that man. That makes sense, I'd do the same thing. Why would you just be buying a lip? If you need a whole new front bumper you should look at the mtech, I have it on mine and I love it.

m1xst5r · 05-26-2014, 11:19 PM

Hopefully these pics upload. Just a m style front bumper. Getting the side skirts too. Mine as well go all out. After it's all done. I want to vinyl wrap in mirror gold 😎😎
