nothing for the E36 2drs?

nothing for the E36 2drs?

At the moment we don't have them for the e36, however, just like the ones for the e46, if we get enough requests, we can make them. The problem is that the mold is very expensive so we need to make sure enough people are interested. I'll keep everyone posted.

I would love a set for the E36!

e36 plz.

another one for e36

YES we want e36

If the price is similar for the E36, that's relatively inexpensive compaired to similar offerings.

E36

E36 please.

another e36 here :love1

Tom

I'd be in on a '97+ E36

E36 here deuce

mw 2 4 e36 sedan 97'!!

e36 (97+) plz, for my 330ti

yea ill take a carbon fiber grill for my 1994 325is....e36 please!!
pm me :D

Sweet.. keep the requests coming for the E36... maybe they'll make a mold!

one more fpr da E36 97 two door holla

e36 sedan 97 please come on. I'm a cf freak

E36 sedan and 2-door are the same. There is just the 95-96 grill and the 97+ grill. I would also like a E36 M3 rear diffuser in CF and also the ///M3 emblem. Ideally I would like to convert all my chrome to CF with a front CF splitter and CF rear diffuser.....that to me would be sweet!!

I'm down ('97)

I'd like the 97+ grills, but I want full cf grills, not covers that tape onto the top of the existing ones. Wouldn't the covers make the grills stick out too far?

so I wonder if this is enough interest for the e36??

please....make the e36 mold as soon as you can!!!........ :D

please....make the e36 mold as soon as you can!!!........ :D
Another for the E36 1997+ coupe. :buttrock

Let us know what goes down for this. I'm VERY interested in this. :)

OK, OK You guys win. I get the point, I surrender!!!!!
We will start working on the mold on Tuesday. I want to enjoy the rest of the weekend. Hang tight, the mold does take some time to make perfect. I will keep everyone posted on the progress.
In the meantime, enjoy the rest of your Holiday. Be safe!!!

Any idea on the cost? I'm sure you'll be able to get 10-20 buyers, no problem, if the price is right. :)

Oh, and any plans on making engine covers and radiator covers? I'm sure others would be interested in a whole package deal if the price is good. I'd also be interested in a CF intake as well. ;)

oooo...ill take a radiator cover in carbon fiber...and the engine cover

im happy with just the grill

Can this company answer my question: Are these covers that you tape onto your existing grills? If so, won't they stick out a lot? How about you just make grills made entirely of carbon fiber, and then just charge a little more? I know one guy makes these, but he charges $225. I'm thinking of buying them, but obviously if I can get them cheaper, I would. I think most people would rather have full carbon fiber grills, not just covers that go on top of your existing grills, but maybe its just me. Can you clear this up for me?

I'm pretty sure the ones being made here are full CF replacements.

Yeah, I agree. I prefer the ENTIRE grill to be made in CF vs. just having covers. I'd even be willing to provide new grills for you to wrap. They're only ~$50-55 for the set at the dealership.

if you read the first page, it says they have

sorry, it says they have 3M backings. Why would they have those if they were direct replacements

The ones being produced for the E46 were covers. Not sure about the ones being made for the E36. I'd prefer full CF ones though.

Or maybe produce BOTH of them and see the demand?

i say full replacement or i don't want it

Richie, can you guys make stuff in silver cf? :) thanks..

full instead of 3m would be soooo much better...also silver carbonfiber does sound good...

So whats the news

hell yea im in for e36 97+ style

These grills are the ones that come with 3M adhesive. They do not stick out because they wrap around the grill. We could make an entire grill and charge more, however, the mold for each CF part can cost $3000 or more. Here is where the problem comes....most people would rather purchase a cover because it will look the same and will be half the price. Another thing is that by having a cover, you are actually using the existing grill as a backing so it will be stronger than if the whole thing was CF.
We will probably sell these in the $100 to $129 range depending on the mold. We would need to sell about 44 sets just to cover the cost of the mold. After that is when we start to see a profit. We here can actually cover just about anything in CF. Most of these parts are single peices and are Hand Made. It really is an expensive process. As far as engine covers are concerned, it really depends on demand. I would love to make everything requested in CF, but like I said the process to do it correctly is quite expensive. We would definate need confirmed orders to make a mold that will cost $3000. I have taken chances before like I will on the grills for the e36 because it seems like many are interested. We prefer to offer grill covers at $129 than to offer entire grills for $250. Modding is an expensive hobby and sport. If we can offer a great quality product at a reasonable price than everyone is happy.

Richie, can you guys make stuff in silver cf? :) thanks..

We can do just about anything. We work with silver, black, red, green, and of course my favorite to match my Topaz Blue 325, blue carbon fiber.

Sounds like a deal to me. I'd be down for the full CF grill for $250. Any idea on the total cost of all three parts, assuming you'd also do CF engine covers, radiator cover, etc.?

Those CF parts on that BMW is kick a$$!!! :buttrock Amazing! Any close-up pictures of the weave?

^same.... :stickoutt

B^u^m^p

I'm in for e36 97+ cf grills

Bee You M Pee
BUMP

Very interested for E36... there are two types of kidneys, I'm interested in the ones that come on '97+ cars.

Would love to see what these guys look like on a car.

Final question: since there are so many variations with CF... what type of CF do you use? I want to make sure if I get more CF parts in the future that they all match. For example, I know it's hard to match the LTW parts, etc.

Thanks,

Boris

I'm in too... I want these CF kidneys so badly !!! For my E36 +97 off course ;)

! E Trey-Seise !
! (e36) !

anybody know if his will match the vis cf hood(color wise)?

if the cf hood and the cf grills are both real cf it most definitely will.

^ So whats the news can you do it or not.

Were these ever made for the E36. I checked the website and didn't see any mention of them. I'm still trying to find these grills.

another one for E36. i have a 96 328i sedan let me know

i'd be interested as well...updates?

This thread just fizzled back in August. I have actually been looking for CF kidneys for my M3/4 for about 3 years now, maybe longer. I will really be surprised if they are ever made :rolleyes

Yep, I hear you. :(

I hope somebody would make these. There is obviously a good demand.

Well, I HAVE seen them. Some members on here make them. It's just a tad expensive for what you're getting. Don't recall the cost but something over $200, I believe. :(
