    BMP front bumper

    I bought the whole kit, modified the back and sides and they fit very nicely after many hours at the bodyshope, but my front piece is badly warped. When you hold it up to the front, the middle is flush, but at both ends it is off by at least 3 inches. So any ideas how i can fix it, me and my bodyguy were looking into trimming the material to align it better, but it will still be warped, is there any way to get the prper shape back to the bumper, any help would be greatly appreciated, as this will be the very first e30 in Nova Scotia with an aftermarket body, and it needs to get on the road!

      As far as tuning goes, there was one stroker, its gone though, either than that i think there is another guy putting a hideous kit on his car, then Bahne30 on here is planning a M52 swap, and im either going stroker/turbo. there is a couple of e30 M3s

        If it is that bad I would try sending it back and getting a replacment. I know the fit on that kit is never good, but I've never heard it that bad. You'll probably have to pay to ship it back to them though.

            Not surprising. It was a good looking kit, but the quality just wasn't there. Is there any way to soften the material to get it to bend into place?
