///M front bumper on a non M
///M front bumper on a non M
As above I might be able to get hold of a ///M bumper to put on my steel grey facelift zed. I know it would bring up the comments of a copy but I am not labling it as an M or trying to make a replica.
What are your thoughts?

Do it, i think the M bumper will look slightly more aggressive and work well. Check out 'S50missile' with the freshly resprayed coupe, im pretty sure he took off the M bumper for an aero one so he may have it spare

Rob i think it will give the car a more individual look along with the other great mods you have done already. As its the facelift no one can ever say your trying to copy an M, just taking some of the great styling touches from the M and building a great individual car for yourself. get it done Mate.
Please help. The money will go to a good cause. email me for the link to my fundraising page.

I feel inadequate now A new oil cap and washer jets and AC Schnitzer pedals to fit and a strut brace sitting in the garage corner waiting to be sold
Still onwards and upwards and dithering over a gloss black hard top

mmm I would think carefully as I actually prefer the deeper sport bumper. For me the ///M bumper has been modelled on the earlier models which sit higher off the floor and do not look as aggressive ie the ///M bumper should have been a deeper.
Thats why I'm thinking of fitting splitters to mine to make it sit a little lower from the front
For me the perfect Z3 bumper would be from a sport but with air scoops instead of the fog lights

Havent' do it yet, zed is all in bits waiting for his x-mass pressiesTim
powder coasted calipers and oh new s/s brale lines :Laughing: is that what you told your insurers :Laughing:
I know what you are saying jonttt, the standard zed bumper with the sports grill does look good. My bumper needs respraying due to a few knock and dings. The sports grill was my plan but I have been offered a ///M bumper for a good price. If not I can always sell itJonttt

I will keep you in mind . Dont want to get too far ahead, just waiting for the thumbs up from the seller
