      E30 content (sorta)
      For those familiar w CSL parts is that oem is extremely expensive and hard to get, so my next viable option was a replica bumper. Not many out there that are close to OEM, aside from a couple. I struggled getting this bumper to fit where my OCDness was satisfied....but came very close .

      I got all the liners to fit, trimmed a bit more off the sides to have it tucked into the bumper.

      I also took one of my old E30 grills, and cut rectangle brackets from the thick plastic, and used it as support for the plastics on either side to prevent it from flapping. for you purists, I guess technically its still a BMW part? lol

      Overall I am ecstatic on how everything lines up! Fits better than my stock one did

        yo Anthony

        I haven't found a single pic on your thread with a full profile view of the IX with the Alpinas mounted. Can you post some updates? I picked up a square set of 16x7 for my IX and need inspiration :-)

                another year passed, but no additional mods to the E30 unfortunately. I think I've run out of ideas!

                anyway, I did some updating to my daily Mini. Used set of BBS SR wheels I got for $500 from FB marketplace, new red BBS centercaps, new Firestone tires I also run on the iX, and some interior steering wheel dressups.
