    Are these bumper fillers unicorn now?



    Like

    What's the deal

    I've wanted one for 3 years now ever since finding out about them. Supposedly, BMP used to sell them, but now their page for e30s that has the "Bumper filler" accessories are empty. I emailed them with no reply and called BMP and talked to 3 specialist that had no idea what I was talking about. Early model cars have a filler that's in steady reproduction every couple of months, but late model cars are SoL apparently

    I just want to have swag

      BMW sent a cease and desist to BMP and the individual who makes them. I want one too, but they are no longer available.

          I was able to grab supposedly some of the last stock from unicorndesigns on the board.
          he may have a few in hiding, but you'll have to reach out via email.

                    because this is R3v if we had nice things they'd be broken and destroyed in 10 sec or less

                            Just got an email back as well

                            Nothing

                            Asked if he was absolutely sure, and then slipped him $15 and a pack of gum through PayPal. We'll see what happens next :firehop:

                              A thought occurred to me not long ago. You could just make your own by cutting the center trim piece to size from a junkyard e34 (possibly also e36 piece, its flatter)) and finding the best way to attach it.
