Thanks mate!! It's been a long time coming as I ordered the bits on 3rd April but the kit was still in development!! I think this is the first E91 in production right now. There is more to come this week too ;-)
I only picked it up last night, then had to shoot to parents evening for my step-daughter so I've had no time to take many others!! I have my camera with me today and I'm over to a mates tonight to sort out how to fix the number plate, hopefully without drilling in to my freshly painted bumper |

Fixing the plate is easy, just use the thin sticky foam tape from Halfords.
Put 2 strips across the whole length of the plate and it won't come off even on a curved bumper. Ive used that method for years |

Looks sexy as hell! Great work and I bet your chuffed. This is one bumper I've had my eye on for a while.
What's next? Ref: Number plate, i bought a bracket from the USA which clips behind my lower grill and I think looks great, nice and sleek. Are you on coilovers by any chance? Must keep an eye out for this, I'm not that far from Reading area.. used to work in Grazeley. |

Next on the list: Tonight - new wheels! Next week - VRSF downpipes and new map Next month - windows tinted and intercooler Got a link to the bracket buddy? I'm actually not on coils yet, it's on the list. It's just on a set of Eibach's on stock MSport suspension. |

This looks awesome mate!! If it was me, until you can sort a bracket for the plate, I would cable tie the plate to the mesh at the bottom, so you don't tarnish that beautiful paint!

LOL Thanks Phil! Now you mention it, it does have a little bit of the dark side about it!!
Cheers Adam! Yeh I was a little nervous at first that it was going to look way too OTT, but I'm so happy with how it's turned out! |
