| where to order bmw m2 carbon fiber exterior parts
BMW people, where do you guys recommend ordering reasonably priced carbon fiber exterior parts from. In particularly,
black grilles
black fender vents
carbon fiber diffuser
carbon fiber front spoiler
carbon fiber side skirts
I would rather buy in Canada. Amazon, ebay, and bimmian seem ok, but I can't seem to order all the stuff I want from one site....any help would be appreciated. Cheers, Micky

Are you looking for BMW performance stuff or aftermarket?
If its the former, go see Darryl at park shore. He's got me all my cool OEM stuff thats still available, and done it at a fair price.
If its the latter, I really don't know unfortunately. Its so hard to find canadian places to order from.

Get Tofu to call down the the main shop parts department, there is a full kit sitting there that needs a home. It was part of a package with a car, but the sales department dealer traded the car before we could install it, send the kit to the other dealer but apparently they sold the vehicle out of country (not allowed) so the kit came back to us. It was already paid for so they should be able to work out a deal on it

Maybe it belongs to new car sales dept. my colleagues at the new car side know nothing about it....

regardless of price point, I have been loving my M2. One of the best driving car I have experienced in a while. It literally drives like a super powerful E30 M3 with a more rigid chassis. Way more fun than a F80 M4, E92 M3, E60 M5,
The e46 M3 feels like the M2 as well.....
I think what holds back the M2 is people don't want an entry level bimmer haha!

for $80K for driving fun, the only other cars in the same category is a C7 Corvette, GT350, Cayman, and the new Camaro ZL1 (not sure of designation)

That’s the problem with the automotive scene nowadays.
Build a realistic car that people want. People still bitch.
M2 is bang for the buck. M3/M4 have reached close to 100k msrp with some options...

Not to get off track here but on that point about people bitching, I'm happy to be seeing a ton of the new gt3's ordered in manual trannys. People finally putting their money where their rich mouths are

You can get all of that at Uniqcarbon. Black grilles hit up the dealer and ask for a discount lol. I've gotten 15% off by just asking. YMMV.
OEM diffusers are way overpriced. Try f87post classifieds.
