Excited to see the final roof product. I have seen the E90M cf panel in person and it's seriously high quality stuff.

A nice looking front lip would be awesome and would balance out the other parts on the car, unfortunately I don't think it will be drivable where I live and at my current height.

Totally just thinking out loud, so you all can feel my pain!

That's why I was asking about poly rather than CF. You'd be surprised how durable they are? Are you afraid of hitting ice in the winter or you can't clear driveways?

Tried CF lip on the e92, still have to fix it. At least with poly, it flexes when you bottom out

Speed bumps and driveways is the issue, so it will be just as bad for me no matter what material it is made of.

Gotcha. Yea, I definitely would bother with CF then. But once other players get in the game, you could give a $3-400 poly lip a shot. Wish someone would do splitters as well

iND/RKP usually releases very clean products though so let's see what happens.

An e90 CRT-esque lip would be great. The outer bottom portion under the fangs is too rounded for a complete lip, IMO.

Waiting for the F87 version of the F82 trunk lid they have. That would be swell

Would work with a Hamann style lip, then the ends would look like the winglets.
