So, the was a major screwup in the other group buy. Seems like we're getting 1.9 skirts rather than the face-lifted ones. I'm not going to go into too much detail, but it was a combination of the dealership trying to get rid of old stock, and me not being meticulous enough when I was ordering them.
Anyway, as much of a major fail as this is for those of us in the group buy, I'm offering the side skirts to anybody with a 1.9 in case anybody wants some. The dealership also has the aero package front/rear bumpers in stock (which I've triple checked this time!), so if you want the full kit, there are a few available. From what I've gathered, these are the last ones available from BMW. Shoot me a PM if interested.
Note the front bumper will bolt up to any Z3 without any fitment issues. I think it actually looks better than an M bumper with the flippers.
Here are some pics:
The side skirts are lower than standard 1.9 skirts and have a deeper cut, similar to the normal 6-cyl side skirts. The front has a molded lip, and the rear has a lower valence.

Aero package for the 4cyl or the 6cyl?

The aero bumper should fit any model, right? But I guess the skirts and rear will only fit the 1.9.

No, the 4cyl areo kit is rather tame by comparison.Originally Posted by ssbuchanan
It would fit, but I don't see the point.

Dang I was about to opt in but the skirt looks about the same. Is the price still about the same?

Yes, price is the same. They look more like regular 6cyl sideskirts. It's an improvement over the stock ones for sure, but not as awesome as the 6cyl aero skirts.

Yeah, looks quite similar to the standard Z3 6cyl bumper.No, the 4cyl areo kit is rather tame by comparison.

It's really a standard 4 cylinder bumper with a small lip added to the front edge... not even to the lower edge. Kind of a disappointment for an aero kit.

Shipping prices depend on where you are in the country.
Again, if you want the whole kit, I can wait on ordering the front/rear bumpers, but the side skirts have to be paid for right now.
Buddy overseas just sent me pics of the skirts.
If there's no interest within the next week or so, these are going back to the dealership.

I don't even
the aero bumper for the 6-cyl is sexy, besides those frickin fog lights, yank those out and put in a snorkel because racecar!

Perfect for sticking a couple of brake ducts through!
Member
Are the bumpers you're gonna order the one with round fog holes, or the 1.9 style w/ the oversize lower lip?
Also, if we order the whole kit, can we still order the side skirts too? Or too late?
Thanks!

No, it's the one pictured above with the lip. Skirts are still available for a limited time... I need to send refunds back to everybody, so if you're gonna plop down for the kit, I'd like to take deposits for the skirts first.

Here are some pics:
.....looks like a Miata replica/conversion.

That's basically what a 1.9 is

Any idea on shipping cost to east coast ZIP 29485? I could use a set of skirts
Member
Sent you a PM.

Sending the side skirts back on monday, so this weekend is your last chance to order!
Member
I honestly like that front bumper. It's half M half 1.9. If the 6 cyl one was like that I'd be tempted to buy it. The rear bumper on that car is grossly over sized though. It looks like a bad body kit.
Member
Good news is that the front bumpers fit all models!
Member
All front bumpers fit all models. And I'm pretty sure the 4 cyl bumper matches the height of the side skirts more closely than the 6 cyl ones. I'd have to get new fog light bolt covers though. And I, as well anyone here would glance at the front of my car and thing I had a 1.9.
