Wondering what these would look like in gunmetal - to match the rims (or whatever you want to call that color)

Just got my LCI side markers.
Can't wait to get them on tonight.
As I de-badged the car and CF covered the BMW Roundel blue logo with black CF, to match the chrome roundel ring, I am going stock, chrome.
I previously wrapped the white blobs with 20% dark film which looked good, these will look GREAT.

I put CF over the blue part of the roundel too loved the way it looked but the stickers peeled up at the corners after a few weeks. Kind of bummed about it. Have you had better success? I got mine from bimmian. Maybe you got a better product.

The link seems to just take me to a domain-future site; do you have a specific link where you got them for $9.99??

Found them on metrorestyling.com!

http://www.metrorestyling.com/BMW-Ba...bmwbadge3m.htm

Also, I see on their listing that it just includes the steering wheel, hood, trunk, and wheel overlays...how did you confirm to get the side/fender ones as well?

The front lip and rear diffuser are not authentic 3D Design parts, couldn't convince myself to pay ~$2700, money was better spent on the Eisennman quads.

I love how those front splitters look, but man, our cars are low enough all ready. This makes me worried that the front end becomes a asphalt shovel.

I go over speed bumps and inclines really slow at an angle whenever possible. Try not to have sport mode on, if you have the adjustable sport suspension, while in parking lots and you will be fine. Will have new 19" shoes on her soon and thinking about getting springs to go even lower.

Where do you get the rear diffuser? Cost? Real CF? Quality?
Did you have the trim/cut the lower rear section of the rear bumper to install?
Difficult to install?
I have seen a few nice rear diffusers on Ebay under $400. This is in my wheel house for price. Not 3D price levels as you stated.

The material is CFRP, quality is good. Got both from the same company, BSD. Yes have to trim for the rear diffuser since it was made for the Eisennman quad exhaust outlet. This was super easy. Took maybe 4 hours, because I am very meticulous, you know OCD, everything had to be perfect or close to it. Otherwise it would have been about an hour or two.

I've posted a few months ago before down pipe and fmic, here is a link:
http://e89.zpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=877293

After all my bolt ons, a few weeks ago:

http://e89.zpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=952361

After all the bolt on, I can hear a difference in tone, sounds more free flowing and the blow off is much louder in person.

Hi BMWZ4RIDER, I like the 20% smoked film as well as my smoked film reflectors on both the F and R bumper. Where did you get the smoked film? can you send me a like example of what that is? did you have to take the thing off to spray it or just 3M tape around and spray it, etc... Thanks1

Hi Herrk,

I want to to make sure ordering from www.bmwmercedesparts.com and using the part #. The site seems to indicate it's for BMW x1 xdrive35i! That's Ok right? There's no pictures, so I want to make sure it's for our z4 also! Thanks

When you do your search at Husker search on a 2013 MY. It appears they've made a step backwards on the new improved web site. PN's are correct. For MY 2014 they are not showing anything but X1 model for some reason.

63137303243 & 63137303244 and should be listed as "ADDITIONAL TURN INDI" @ $49.89 ea
