Living out of town has its pros and cons. Pros include great lanes to fly down, cons include suicidal bunny rabbits who have the whole night to cross the road but choose to do it as I approach.

This is the result of hitting Bugs Bunny at around 80mph. After destroying the front end he hung on for a few seconds before letting go and throwing himself under the wheels. After stopping, picking up the broken parts of my bumper, kicking his lifeless body around for a few minutes and wiping some tears from my face I got to thinking 'Perfect time to do some tasteful body styling'.

So does anyone have any suggestions for a replacement nose for the zed? Something classy but sporty perhaps? Bonus points if you have pictures :D
 
Bummer :thumbsdown: But as you say...
"If you cant fix it with Duck tape, you aren't using enough Duck tape" :P :rofl:
 
How about a M-sport bumper or aero kit, if you need a lower grill i have a spare 2nd hand one up for offers
 
I am quite liking the Hamann front end.....

Comments?
The Aero looks good too but maybe a bit to low for the local wildlife. I dont want to be replacing it any time soon.
 
You need a type of Sparticus adaptor, to guillotine the head and a scoop to flip the body up on the manifold for BBQ Bright Eyes.

Now that would at least be one unique Z4 mod...
 
were the tears for the bunny, or for your bumper?

A possum ran in front of me (in another bimmer - not a z) once ... just jumped out of a tree onto a highway overpass ... and I was terribly upset for the possum.
 
Go on do it :rofl:

Always quite liked this one by Hartge,

unfortunately they never put it into production, other than that got to agree with srhutch, most other options seem to carry horrific price tags.
 
Or buy an alpina front spoiler and put it over the top
They appear regularly on ebay for about £100 - £150 :roll:

Happened to me on the highway in the e36 M3 middle of the night. The front bumpers on the e36 M3's have a lip that protrudes from the front... at speed it's like a knife. The rabbit rocked the front bumper and pushed one side in, passenger foglight popped out and went under the tire. The rabbit was decapitated and its head remained against the mesh of the bumper. I left it there for good luck for the remainder of my drive home at 3am... pulled into a power wash when I finally got back to town but he was gone. Hopped off somewhere along the way home.
