    I have seen many bolt on, factory finish "bodykits" in my time.

    Exapmles,

    re amemiya
    AB Flug
    veilside
    wings west
    etc.

    Some of those even use factory mounting hardware, but then there is where the price point comes into play.

      Not to argue with you... but I'm gonna let Vlad speak to this one.

      Just my $0.02

      if you go as far as manufacture these kits, why not go a step furhter and make the brackets and be better than all the other sellers?
      Sure, paying a body shop to do it may not be a big deal. But I can promise that it isn't cheap!

      Again, they do look nice. I particularly like your E30 M3 knock-off fenders.

        Nice but at that price- might as well buy directly from BMP- BMP includes lights/fogs/brackets for about the same price. BMP kit installs in minutes if you already have bumpers off.

        why is it not priced the same as the rest of your kits in your link? Do you offer groupbuy discounts? Have you thought of making mtech 2 kits?

            BMP no longer makes this kit.

              i have BMP brackets laying in the garage. I could get dimensions if some one here wants to fab some.

              Why are you calling it a kit? Like previously mentioned, this is just a collection of molded fiberglass. After body shop cost, we may as well bring in e36 bumpers and say "go".

              BMP front bumpers were made of very good plastic also, so difference in price is a bit unreasonable.

              That is the best looking kit out there IMO.

                Most BMP bumpers were actually made in fiberglass:giggle: Only some front bumpers were plastic.

                  I have to see front BMP that is not plastic. Anyone? Everything else was fiberglass in my kit.

                  But seriously, want to fab a mounting kit to go with your kit? Why not, you're already charging more than BMP did for theirs. It's only a matter of time until those other guys on eBay figure out how to do it.

                          let me STRONGLY disagree with you. I own the bodyshop and I've done my share of projects, fabricating brackets for fiberglass parts that you manufacture are HUGE PITA ! I still have that replica Alpina front spoiler that I bought from you, never put it on...

                          Like I said earlier, if you have the ability to make the bumpers, spend another day or two and make the mounting hardware, then mount it on the car and take pics, this way you'll sell your product, good luck to you

                            Agree with Vlad.

                            Can't justify spending a grand on something that may or may not fit properly and force me to use up all my favors with bodyshop on this.

                            Still question about early body fitment.

                              Ever heard the phrase "The customer is always right?" Telling potential customers their concerns are no big deal turns them off.

                              Lots of potential customers here (me included), don't shun the opportunity entertain their feedback. It's like getting 100% free market research.

                                You guys sound like a bunch of wuss's. How friggin hard can it be to fab up some brackets. Buy the product or move on.
