I was looking at the prices and wondering if anyone has used or seen the bavauto bumper covers & side skirts applied... The pics they offer are not great at all. Anyone have anything on this stuff?

you know those fit over your big metal bumpers right? i looked at them when i first got my car but i felt like they would just look funny. besides, the side skirts look like they came from an e36, the front looks like a volvo lip, and it looks like they ran out of time to finish the back so it got left half done.
...thats just my opinion though.sigpic

yikes i cant think of anything you could do to you car that would devalue it faster than putting that shit on.
if you have an early car get euro bumpers and an mtech1 valence.
if you have a late model car get real IS shirts and IS lip.Last edited by Cabriolet; 11-28-2012, 10:32 AM.

Like most early US model e30 owners i got annoyed of my DBs, so I swapped to plastics and the lack of the rear valance got annoying so i bought a hartge replica valance. Its not bad at all but i plan on cutting off a late model rear valance and welding it on mine soon. Friend did it and it looked really good. It'll get rid of my only rust spots as well. :up:87 ETA | Hibernating
