Aero side skirts?

[ref]davros[/ref], Thank you, I gave it a read through and the quality looked great, just shipping really killed the deal. I did realize the post was about shipping to U.K. members, do you know where Leonardip is located because I am in the U.S.? Also, do you know the quality of the Duraflex? I read they were not just fiberglass and consisted of other materials mashed together it seemed. They seem tempting for $156.
Thanks again for the link.

I’ve not heard good things about the duraflex ones. They’re meant to be of very poor quality and don’t fit very well.

The ModeloDrive ones mentioned elsewhere in this thread look really good quality from the photos but they wouldn’t ship to the UK. They are US based so may be perfect for you.
 
[ref]davros[/ref], What a shame, I had found out I live close to a warehouse selling duraflex. I may just have to check those ones mentioned out.
 
I can't understand why facelift Sport models or Ms didn't have them as standard. :headbang:

My 52 plate E46 325ti had them.

And I think my 57 plate 123d had them too.

Hi,

I may have found a contact for shipping items from the USA to Europe (friend of a friend)... maybe it would become viable to contact ModeloDrive and organise a "group buy" if shipping fees are reasonable.

I will be happy to explore in more detail if there is interest...

Let me know

Hi Attilio,

Granted I was unaware of the existence of aero skirts until recently, however I'm slowly but surely realising that I absolutely need and must have some.....even if they will be less noticeable on a Sapphire black coupe. I think it's a side effect of exposure to this forum (although that's just speculation for now).

If you happen to pursue this, and it's financially viable, consider me interested.

Evening, I know where this is in the U.K. for £3.6k & when I last asked was still available if you have room to break it up... apparently runs & drives

FULL AERO KIT!!!!

The front does nothing for me, but I do quite fancy that rear bumper. I'd be stuck with ludicrous VRT charges if I were to pick it up and bring back to Ireland though, even if it was for breaking. Pity. Hard to tell from the pics, but could possibly be sapphire black in colour? If the owner ever expresses an interest in a direct swap for rear bumpers and skirts (with contribution of course), I'd consider driving across though.
 
Someone mentioned me?

:tumbleweed: Hi everyone, was wondering if this aero side skirt moulding creation was still going on or not? I know the thread is not super old, but no activity lately. And of course right is still available from BMW. Very very tempted to get the duraflex at $156 ($100 shipping), but unsure of the quality and what not. That or just ride around with a right one haha. Also I was thinking, couldn't someone just make a higher quality mould of the duraflex one?

Hi Julian,
not sure if Leonardip is still making aero skirts. They looked good quality but sadly the shipping costs to UK proved too expensive. You could try contacting him maybe?

Good luck with the search,

I'm surprised no aftermarket company hasn't done some replicas of them.
The prices people talk about for 2nd hand ones of these is crazy.
 
New record price... just for one I think :rofl:
