Love the look. That bumper is great, not a big fan of the LEDs on bimmers yet(angel eyes for BMW, LED for MB/Audi) but I guess this is the trend.

I have one question about the bumper. Is it parking sensor compatible?

I thought I could see side sensors but wasn't able to see front sensors from my iPhone. Looking at the same car right now but parking assist is an option I don't want mainly bc of aftermarket bumpers and small cars don't need them so I just see it as a waste of money as far as options go for me.

You should see the fog lights in person. 3 projector LED.



that was the plan. We couldn't wait for july.







We didn't take close up pics of the fog, but you can see them at your local dealer off a 6 series. Msport or non Msport use the same for lamp.



I agree the rear is sticking out a tad bit. We are working on it to correct it. A simple problem to fix.

We did not raise the car what so ever. I think the flushness of the wheels showed the true height of the car vs the 18s that was tuck in slightly.




if you like this, stay tune for up coming plans. We are working on another style bumper



that will be fixed soon.



Yea, I agree. But when it is factory 3 led projector, how can you knock that.













originally it was suppose to be a slight stretch. The reason for the wider wheel, was to get a more concave look in the rear. If we went with e 20x10, the rear would have a less concave.

We are already working on this to bring the wheel back in about 1/4 inch.








The 6 series bumper is available through BMW. We were lucky enough to get one. They only have 1 in the nation at the time we ordered it.










this past weeks have been crazy for us. We tried every lip known to the aftermarket world to even come close to the shape of the f30. Last sat I had a vision and this was the end result.

so sat night, this was what i saw.



come monday, checked with BMW of Monrovia to see if it was in stock. They said there was one. The other parts was coming from the east coast. I asked them to overnight it over. Tue came around and the msport bumper was cut into a million pieces. sorry no pics of that. 4 hours later, I held my breathe and started cutting up the f30 bumper. If this did not work, the f30 will not have a bumper for a long while. 3 days later the bumper came back completed.



and the test fit.



while the bumper was off, we decided to do a custom FMIC as well..





friday morning, we primered and blocked the whole bumper. It went into paint late friday night. And here we are.







20x9 245 30 20
20x1 285 25 20



you can say that.




This will be available to the public.



That can be done. Let me know.



yes it will







There is a lot of hope. I was not happy with the f30 front what so ever.







I forgot what the rear offset was. I know it was in the mid 30s



I agree with you on that. We will fix that later on. We had 4 days to get it ready for last sat. I was not going to take a chance to not have it ready just to redo that.
Which LED Lights did you use? Thanks!
