Bumpers painted

[brodee]

Finally got my bumpers painted to get rid of the black on the bottom. I really like the way the brake ducts look painted white. I had the sideskirts sprayed too, but I'm waiting on new clips to put them on, hopefully be here Wednesday. I also got my euro trim put on. I still have some adjusting to do on the front, tell me what you think.

VERY VERY Clean... personally i like ALOT more than black bumper even though alot of people on here like it all black. :)

[brodee]

Thanks guys. It's killing me to not have the skirts on too. damn clips :(

[liquidtiger720]

I love it. Done deal. I want them now! Too bad I can't mod as fast as you, hehe.

[632 Regal]

That definetly looks cool!

You're lucky, your car already came with skirts, I had to get mine from Peter.

[SC David]

After the skirts your car is perfect. Looks excellent!

[Alexlind123]

Wait a second...the lower part of the rear bumper is normally black?

Uh, yea.

[Alexlind123]

Mine are cirrus blau, i never really looked at that part of an e34 before, it didnt really stand out too much on mine, i guess i prefer it though.

Blasphemy!!

[SRR2]

I like that look, but don't you think it would be a good idea to put something like X-pel on it NOW, before it gets sandblasted to crap with road grit? Particularly the rocker panel and bumper skirt on the sides.

[uscharalph]

Niiice! I can't wait to see it with the side skirts.

[mattyb]

damnn fine that bro. if its white its right. i reckon on some of the darker cars black is still ok but white is definately the go for yours. but yeh, the wide grille next?

[BigKriss]

looks good mate, you didn't paint it white between the fog lights. the brake ducts look cool. your side skirts are still black. I like it all white actually, it modernises the car, a few dudes have been doing it on here recently.

I don't like the tow hook covers painted, it needs a little contrast down there. I have painted sideskirts, just have to put them on.

[Russell]

Never did like the black lower panels. IMO, it made the car look taller in light colors.

That is one reason I purchased a 95. Got all, or most, of the refinements since introduction.

Nice looking car Brodee. The euro trim really cleans things up. If you have the city lights,where are you getting the power now?

It looks great!

[granit_silber]

Brodee,

Looks AWESOME! btw stay narrow! :D

Dumb question for ya. When you put on the euro trim, what did you do about the side lights?

I can pull power from the corner light, or the side marker, the wires are still in there.

I'll keep it narrow, I didn't used to like the narrow grille, but I think it looks good on this car. I may change the touring over later though.

I just took out the bulbs andtucked the wires back up in the bumper. I think I"m going to order some trim for my e30 too, it needs new ones and might as well go with the euro. Unfortunately it's more expensive on that car.

It keeps getting better...

I always wondered if that would trigger a check control message. Glad to know it won't. Did you get the trim from BMA?

No check control message from the side markers. I got it on the bimmerforums group buy. $54/all four pieces.
