a much more reasonable price. im curious how much they hang out from the bumper. Keep us posted. Seems it was only a matter of time before we could get these out of taiwan/china for 1/5th the price MAD wanted. They are also on aliexpress for $89.

Off topic but considering you've got vinyl laying around have you considered wrapping the lower section of the bumper as https://www.instagram.com/3hree3hirty5ive/ has it painted? Haven't seen anyone do anything similar

Pretty nice alternative to covering the whole bottom splitters like every F30 on the road while still adding a hint of aggressiveness. It's overkill combined with the MP Lip though. Looks good paired with a simple lip. Several M3's, M4's and M5's run something very similar

I think it looks good with an aggressive lip/other CF stuff.
