Any word on if other parts are available? That K55 bumper is uh...interesting to say the least. The K30 is awesome though, like a more aggressive OE aero bumper. __________________ ~Dave~ 98 328ti Morea Grun slicktop 11 128i space gray slicktop 13 JGC WK2 Deep Cherry Search | RealOEM | | | 03-03-2009, 07:18 PM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2008 Location: Central Florida Posts: 678 | Quote: Originally Posted by spidertri Awesome, thanks for the heads up yoda.

I know he mentioned something about steering wheels, mirrors, side skirts and rotors (vented though)... The K55 is INTERESTING, and those who like Fast & Furious look might like it... We'll see what else he sends me to post up....wish I was getting paid for this!.... Doing it for the ORG so that you guys have a chance to get in on some good deals for our cars... __________________ 2LT Rodriguez CA ARNG TURBO 96' Sport, Alaska Blue, Auto Custom JohnBoy Turbo, Midnight-Tunning Software, HKS BOV, e-Pod Gauge Pod, BavAuto Springs, Bilstein Sport, e30 3.73 LSD, Depo P36, Apexcone 55w HID, OEM Spoiler, M3 Lip, M3 Mesh Grill, Crossdrilled Rear Rotors, M3 Front Brakes, Sparco 3 point Harness, Euro M3 Wheel, K&N cone, Clear Corner/Sides/Tails, M3 Center Console & Arm-rest, M3 Red Cluster Needles, M3 Mirrors & Side Skirts, RD Exhaust, DS-1 wheels!... | | | 03-03-2009, 07:19 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Austin Posts: 3,059 | Oh crap, they still have the k30?! I thought it was discontinued. Somebody needs to jump on these. I'm getting my bumper from tisher though. Which comes without the splitters on it. I'd rather buy it as a separate piece. Hell, I'd rather have it come in CF. __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36.

It would suck to save up all the money and find out it's not available anymore. __________________ ~Dave~ 98 328ti Morea Grun slicktop 11 128i space gray slicktop 13 JGC WK2 Deep Cherry Search | RealOEM | | | 03-03-2009, 08:19 PM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Austin Posts: 3,059 | I spoke to Evan. We were gonna get a group buy going on soon. Original price is $220, and the GBP would be $200. And according to him, shipping is only $15. __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36.

Go ahead and compare: __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36.

He has a thread in the Lounge, I'd check it out and ask him. __________________ She's no longer mine, but I gotta keep the pic Current euro: Black MkIII VW Gti VR6 | | | 03-03-2009, 11:37 PM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2008 Location: Central Florida Posts: 678 | Quote: Originally Posted by lysergicsurfer has anyone used the rd springs?

I saw his car (he has DS1's) and the drop was not dramatic at all, it is I would say, just like H&R Sports or Eibach or BavAuto Springs. Mav, if you haven't paid for the tischer bumper, the RD one is just a few bucks more and it looks much more agressive because of the lip extensions...IMO but... it is your money and you decide what to do with it!... BTW I forgot to mention that they have a couple of RD Strut Braces as well... he didn't give me a price for those though... __________________ 2LT Rodriguez CA ARNG TURBO 96' Sport, Alaska Blue, Auto Custom JohnBoy Turbo, Midnight-Tunning Software, HKS BOV, e-Pod Gauge Pod, BavAuto Springs, Bilstein Sport, e30 3.73 LSD, Depo P36, Apexcone 55w HID, OEM Spoiler, M3 Lip, M3 Mesh Grill, Crossdrilled Rear Rotors, M3 Front Brakes, Sparco 3 point Harness, Euro M3 Wheel, K&N cone, Clear Corner/Sides/Tails, M3 Center Console & Arm-rest, M3 Red Cluster Needles, M3 Mirrors & Side Skirts, RD Exhaust, DS-1 wheels!... | | | 03-03-2009, 11:48 PM | #13 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2009 Location: Sunbury PA 17801 (The 570) Posts: 104 | Quote: Originally Posted by lysergicsurfer has anyone used the rd springs?

Handles great; Probably not as good as your h&r race set, but it's a lot better than stock. I received a 1.5-1.75" drop. And my friend who hardly looks at bmw's, noticed that I got a drop, even though he has seen my car probably 2 times.

But I guess if these become really rare, I might go with RD instead. I'm actually not planning to buy either, anytime soon. I want to get a remus exhaust first. Gonna be a while though. Probation, na classes, aa classes are eating through my funds. And the rising gas prices is not helping either. __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36.
