    the hate on this kit is purist i can tell you that haha. i'd have the pandem front with m3 rear fenders , i think that would look nice.

      I don't think it has much to do with purism as it has to do with taste. I have seen many over fenders that while are still tacked on go with the flow of the car and blend in nicely. That is not the case here. If I were to do something like this, I would just go M3 box flare conversion. The front fenders bolt on and the rears would need custom work but it's 100% doable for almost the same price as well.

        I'd mix that ^^ with the rocket bunny wing , but thats just me , my style , wouldnt go m3 trunk bcos i think it would be too emulative of the m3 but maybe a zender evo w / flap would show opposite intention of trying to be like an m3

          All of Rocket Bunny's stuff looks like this to me. I don't like any of it. Looks very home-made-in-my-garage.

            Thats because it is home made at tra kyoto , with a cnc , watch crank and piston video on it, but who cares its a hit or miss with people liking it . If its you its you ..

              I just don't know why you'd spend so much money on something like this to get the end result.

                  a matter of taste..i don't like it

                  Every line is out of proportion to me in adding this to a smaller square body like the E30. I will say though that the design "fits" better to me on the E36...quite proper.

                    I must say I don't see how this is $3 G's. I was expecting $1000-1500 tops.

                      Its been said here that its usually cheaper through other shops instead lf straight through rb, I wouldnt know for sure bc im not even in the market for a full rb kit let alone any crazy aero atm.

                        I like parts of this kit. Where can I buy? I thought Garagistic was selling them but nothing is on their site.
