    Need Help Picking out a Lip

    Since I completed the front 88+ front valance and bumper swap I've needed a new lip spoiler for the front but I am having a hard time picking one out.

    Looking for something tasteful. Pictures always helps to.

    Surprisingly, the lip from an 86-87 325i looks pretty good with facelift valences.

      Hmm.. the best kind.. free. I already have one of those laying around in the garage.

      What's the difference between the iS lip and the Reiger Infinity lip?

        the fit on the reiger may not be too great, i may be wrong though..

        the IS lip is a factory lip...it'll snap into the stock locations. I guess an IS lip would be easiest to install

          is (with splitter):


          Reiger (with splitter):


          biggest visual difference being how Reiger lip juts forward

            I'm a big fan of the Reiger lip with or without a splitter. It gives a nice M3 sort of look with that bit jutting out. It looks agressive without being over the top.

            Ritalin Kid: How much did the bumper and valence swap cost? Was this a pretty big project? (and did you put on plastic bumpers to get rid of the metal ones?)

              Yeah.. had to ditch the aluminum monstrosities.

              Total cost with front & rear valance, front & rear plastics, fog lights, brake ducts and supplies ran me about $550 shipped.
