that is nice mate

get the is lip colorcoded and keep the standard lip black i looks nice, check out Karan's tourer he has it also

[Widge]

How the fuck did you do that??????????
And where can I get a black standard lip like that to go between my Is and the car????? It'd look cool in silver with a blck grille and black stripe in the spoiler.

[Sjoerd320i]

it's just the litle black lip that's suppossed to be under every standard bumper/valance

[Widge]

Yeah yeah I know, but mine has the IS as standard, so I suppos I just get a lip off Daz

How does it attach the IS too?

Here's a pic, Basically all i done was drill holes in both splitters and cable tie them together!

Then i sprayed it black, not going to both with colour coding it because it will get stone chips! Black paint is easy just to spray over when it gets chipped.

widge I would just bolt them together with m3 thread.

why didn't you do that Mike?

[Widge]

I think I will buy a load more spoiler clamps from the dealer (32p each) and drill the standard spoiler to take them, then the IS lip will be attached with BMW parts!

[Karan]

LOL

this is a great idea that some dude in OZ did a while back on his iS

[Karan]

how is yours attached Karan?

self tappers of course

was gonna nut and bolt it but i only had big bolts (m8ish) so i though id just screw it!

[Widge]

I think I will do this when I get around to it
Karan I have been meaning to ask you, in your humble opinion (considering I have never driven a sport) would I be better to find a sport box for my 2.7 or stick to the standard one? Assuming cost is not an issue.
I would have thought as the top gear is the same ratio the answer is yes, but I'd value your real world experience of both.
Cheers
Oh sorry

[Karan]

yeh sport box is better..... but as my cars are very dofferent powerwise its hard to say i notice a diference!


im not the person to ask really as ive never driven a stock 325 with sport box

[Widge]

OK I'll just see if one present's it's self before the big day (which is ages away at this rate ) if not I'll stick to standard. Cheers

I could not be arsed with doing it all with bolts etc etc, cable ties do the job the same.
