Duke Dynamics non-widebody front bumper? 1M style?

devilcocoa1993 · 03-17-2014, 01:05 AM

Just notice a post on Duke Dynamics facebook page says "check out the Non-Widebody front bumper for the Z4 by DUKE DYNAMICS JAPAN".

Then I click into the link:
http://stellamotors.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-573.html

Since I can't read Japanese, donno what they r saying on that page. But does look like the 1M style which has been posted here:

Doesn't look bad imo.
Anyone have any info abt this? price & where i can get it kinda thing?

ps- This is my very 1st post on Bimmer Post. A little intro of myself:
Blue Z4 35i, girl owned, 19" Vossen CVT, Cobb AP V3 stg 1, will go air soon. =P

From reading the link you posted, it appears to be a M3 "replica" rather than a 1M. Personally, I prefer the Duraflex one over the DD. The front fascia of the DD is pinched in, making the whole front end very pointy (as if it wasn't already by design). Although, without actual pictures of the Duraflex, it is hard to judge.

FYI - This bumper has been available for quite some time now, but have not seen it on anyone's car except from whom I think to be one of the owners of DD.

Take a look here:

with CSL trunk, which DD also makes

Also, welcome to the forum and hope you are enjoying the Z

Welcome to the forum. Not sure how many girls out there that own a Z and active on the forum. The more the better.

Personally, I like the 1M style more. The one from DD looks like the lower lip is bulging out and it looks a bit squished.

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your first post. I like that style bumper as it is pretty cool. Since I also own the 1 i know that it is not the 1 bumper however it does have a similar look.

I love your car btw (i might be a little prejudice on that statement though :-) Hope to hear more from you here on the site.

Thanks guys!
But I think this bumper needs a front lip to match with. Or looks a bit weird at the bottom...
