Saw this... would love to recreate it somehow!

[mattyman22]

Saw this here mod on a random internet picture :



I absolutely love the look of it, it's subtle and elegant but also really changes the front end of the car to be much more aggressive. I was curious if anyone know if this is sold somewhere as a kit or if it is totally custom. If it is totally custom they modified the front fenders to scoop over the front of the headlights, which could easily be recreated with some vinyl laying in a similar pattern. Could end up looking like this with the body lines kept intact:




What do you guys think? Know where to buy a kit or how best to recreate the look? Let me know below! I love it!

Looks like a black Zed. 8)

Lovely Z3 coupe! Do it!

Haha I meant the quarter panel covering part of the headlights

 

[Z4C_er]

Just eyebrows. Lots available on the web, but agreed, those look well done.

Does the trick nicely.

I'm not so sure the ones in the first pic are just eyebrows. Unless it's a trick of the photo the panel looks like a single piece to me

Photo-shopped, its the same photo with the eyebrow join airbrushed out

Wow you think so? I figured a little bit of body filler and some vinyl wrap could easily achieve this. Was planning on doing it myself as a fun little project! Or maybe just vinyl wrapping directly over the panel gap from the headlight to the panel for a smooth look.

Its the same car in the same spot. Just photo shop. I wouldn't advise doing that. You're screwed if that headlight ever needs to come out. All your work will be undone.

Front bumper looks like the Reiger bumper. I thought of getting that. Looks decent. Wheels look shite though. Too bad manz for me. Looks like it belongs in Slough crawling through traffic.

Front bumper is E60 M5 isn't it?

 

[earthdweller]

Lovely olive shoe, blue z3m roady and purple M5?

 

[Mr Tidy]

Lovely olive shoe, blue z3m roady and purple M5?

Yes, I'd love either of those!

Those eBay ones make the car look a bit sleepy!

Thanks for the link. I took the plunge and ordered a set. Being a cheap and impatient person I fitted them as is, without painting them. Maybe I will paint them later if I like it. Or get black grills to match.

It doesn’t look half as bad as I expected, especially on a black car with chrome inlays.

A member on here has those fenders - Mos6689 I think is his username?
