    Before & After Bumper Tuck Pics?

    I'm picking up a diving board E30 as soon as my M3 sells. I'd like to see some bumper tuck comparison pics before I decide to convert it to late bumpers.

    Can anyone hook a brotha up?

    This should probably be consolidated with the bumpers thread in this DIY section. There is a pic or two there as well ( http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=41969 ).

    I'm surprised to find that there are not any after pics in the tucking write-up ( http://www.r3vlimited.com/Tech/tuck.htm ).

      I've already checked out the thread and the write-ups, but no one has ever posted pics.

                      That's really not a bad look. I think I could live with the diving boards if they look like that.

                      Thanks, devin. Those pics are perfect. The car I'm looking at is also white.

                            I did the tuck on mine and I think it makes it look pretty good. Though it is only noticeable if you are looking for it. Least thats what I think. I will see if I can muster up some photos. But I will say when drilling the bumper shocks DEFINITELY put a plastic bag around the drill that thing shoots oil out in a heavy mist and it is nasty. I used the bag and it still sprayed out if the bag wasn't in just the right spot.
