Do you know a shop in the GTA that can do this?

It may be too late to do this since winter is around the corner, but If I store my ride I may just do it before she hibernates. Anyone know a reputable shop in the GTA capable of molding the aero lip to the bumper?

I'm also interested in the front aero kit for my 335. Did you buy it from a dealership?

Just one caution; I've seen this done on 2 cars, and on both cars after ~3 months the paint started to crack around the edges of the aero lip. It may have been the quality of the job, but I do know molding things on to bumpers is tough.

Yea, I got it from the dealer when I bought the car.

Thanks for the advice. I hope I can get some sort of guarantee otherwise I wont do this. Only reason why I wanna do this other than it lookin sick is that I gotta paint my lip anyway.....lots of stone chips.

Thanks everyone for your help.

I'm new to BMW (always had Honda before) but I've always heard great things about Eurasia in Scarborough and Velocity in Markham. Though I have never dealt with either, I've seen the molding and conversions they have done and they looked great.

Ya I am new to the forum as well, just picked up my car a few weeks ago. I have a few questions about this aero kit.

When I asked the dealer for the price on the lip they said I had to buy the whole bumper? I thought it was just a lip that clipped on.

Whats the best dealership to buy this part from?

And if I don't go the dealership way, is the lip just as good as a OEM one?

What should I look to be paying for the aero kit?

Thanks in advance.
