I am looking to purchase an M3 front end. I found a site that has them for $150 + $100 for shipping. Now, this doesn't come primered or anything, just fiberglass. I have to cut the holes for the driving lights and for the grille. I also have to drill the holes. Now, my question is... Is this a good deal? Or, does anyone know of anywhere else that I can get a used one for around the same price? See, if I got this one, then I would need the bumper moulding and stuff as well, and I don't want to go through all of that hassle if I don't have to. If anyone can lend me a hand on this, it would be greatly appreciated... Thanks!!!

Well, the site is www.visageauto.com. On the site, they go for $339. But, I talked to the guy, and he said that he would cut me a deal. I might be able to talk to him, if you were interested, and see if he would cut me a better deal on two of them, and then I could have one of them sent to you if you were interested...

I don't have a car to put them on. I'm just thinking that quality can't possibly be any good at that price.

I agree with AJ on this one..

A friend of mine here offered to make the whole M3 body kit for me outta fiber.. for cheap too. I saw a 316i compact with the kit on and it didn't look bad, but side by side with a real M3 and you can tell the difference.. so yeah

Yeah, I found a guy selling just the front bumper for $150 with everything. Its red, and my car is silver, and it has a little crack in it and a pretty bad scratch on the side, but it is EASILY repairable, so I am just going to go along that road I think. A lot less work then completely fabricating just a piece of fiberglass... Thanks for your input guys!
