Hey does anyone have the M3 style looking bumper with stock sideskirts and rear? or maybe a rs1 side and rear setup?

anyone got pics of this with them? im trying to see how much lower the m bumper is than the stock sides and rear.

if anyone has pics that would b great.

The Viniati one is smoother than the StreetConcepts one I think. You can tell the difference by looking for the horzontal line. The Viniati ones have that and the Mpower/StreetConcept ones don't.

I have the one that looks like the VINIATI one. Mine is from the original manufacturer before VINIATI got it. The difference between the stret concept one and the VINIATI one is the street concept one has the upper grille flipped upside down and where the fog lights go there are 4 holes(2 per side) as opposed to the 2(1 per side) on the VINIATI. The bumper hangs down 1-1/2 to 2" further than stock however I don't think it looks too bad with the stock sides. I've had mine for 5 months and think it looks fine. It will look better with sides and a rear but I am probably going to end up selling it and getting another kit instead of doing this. 1KleantC (formerly known as sciondriver1466) had the VINIATI with RS1 lip kit (minus the front obviously) and it looked great. If you do get this I wouldn't recommend getting a lowering kit any lower than H-techs as you are going to have issues with pot holes and speed bumps unless you have a good amount of experience driving a lowered vehicle. I can't post any pics right now because I am on my phone but if you can wait until tonight or tomorrow morning I will have some up for you. I hope that answered all of your questions.

Sorry folks. Paid the comcsat bill last night but just a little too late so my gf has to set the internet back up so hopefully tonight I can get back on. I don't know if you can look through my photobucket account but the username is deflaytedwayz1 so maybe you could look through there and find it. Otherwise you'll just have to wait. Sorry.
