    Lip Spoiler Project Part III - The Final Product









    I'm pleased with how it came out. No curbs, please.

    Distinctive and nice. I like the way the angles match the angles of the headlights.

    I like it. Did you install it yourself? Is that OEM? If not OEM, what do you think about it's fit and finish?

    It's homemade. OEM pre-facelift bumper cover with the ebay spoiler for the '01+ bumpercover.

    looks great, you just need some non falcor ears to finish it off!

    my 1 prob with it (hate to be a hater) but there is no line on the front bumper to match w/ the existing body line of the sideskirt.

    Did you do something to the front bumper trim? can't see where the front plate delete starts and stops! great work!

    I dont know what non falcor ears are.

    I thought about the no-line issue, and decided it was too much of a pita to notch one in. I thought if it was really an aesthetic problem, I could paint a thin black line on. Besides, the M5 bumpers don't have the line.

    For whatever reason, the three bumper strip pieces were tight when I put them on this bumper. I don't know why. Perhaps the 10 layers of paint and primer.

    I'm happy with the match too. It was $125 plus tax.
