Rieger Front Bumper Opinions
You’re right seems a bit dodgy. I think I might just go with the Pre facelift bumper. What do you think j3nks79 for the coupe?

I’m not keen on the prefacelift bumper. I like the standard facelift or the Z4M.

Same. I bought a Rieger rear diffuser from them for like $400 USD. After I didn't hear back from them for almost a month, I sent them an email. They replied saying that they will check. No response. After I sent them 2 more emails asking for a status update (and 2 more generic responses), they finally got back to me and said shipping was too expensive on their end it is an extra $356. They were happy enough to simply take my money and never talk to me again.

I'm not a fan of the Rieger parts.
While I love the M bumper they are hard to find and I think you also need an M undertray, but I much prefer the pre-facelift to the facelift one.

Have you considered an aero bumper?
This was actually my old bumper, sold to a forum member.
Getting one might be an issue right enough.

Aero bumpers are incredibly hard to find like you said : ( , even more so than the M, but that aero bumper is beautiful on your coupe
I think I’ve decided I’ll go with Rieger but just the bumper as I think the huge front really looks nice with the standard body lines of the coupe.

Have you seen the one on MagnaTuning
https://www.magnatuning.com/en/product/ ... x-Body-Kit
They've given it a different name and hidden the rieger logo but its the same bodykit

Not a fan. It just doesn’t look well resolved or in keeping with the rest of the car.
It’s also quite bulky and without the rest of the kit I’m not sure how well it will match with the standard car-it’s hard to see on the black one. That’s not a recommendation to buy all of it btw!
The white car also looks like it might be on 20’s. Big wheels hide a multitude of sins and without them it will look ‘heavier’ on the car.
Of course, if you like it go for it. We all know what opinions are like!

wow I loved the look of the front and side bumpers, but that photo really points out how well they don't fit, the side skirt looks like they've stolen it from another car doesn't fit at all!beanie wrote: ↑Sun May 12, 2024 10:31 am Not a fan.
