    but yeah i knew most wouldnt think it wasnt a good idea, but what till its done.

    and to the comment about the bumper bending inward, yeah i didnt like it, but with the Reiger Lip it should help to offset that inward bend (if you know what i mean)

    and to tell you the truth, im riding around with no early valence (damn raccoon), just the metal bumper, so lol i had to do something quick.

    It's a 318i.

    Got the bumper already from a black 98 325i. Peicing together front plastic valence/bumper proves to be a little expensive for me. I got the bumper for $40 with a Reiger Infinity Lip.

    So far it fits alright, im gonna start cutting and refabing mounts tommorow. It didnt come with the Re-bar, but im gonna cut the stock metal bumper as form it into a rebar. It will involve cutting it A LOT thinner lenghtwise (pax to driver side) and cutting it before it curves into the fenders.

    I know some may think its a horrbile idea but i dont see how ppl say its so hard to fit. It wont be the hardest thing ive done, but will require some time.

    Advice/input welcome
