E9x M3 RKP Motorsport front lip!

[IND-Distribution]

RKP Composites has emerged as an industry leader of top quality US and German-made carbon fiber products, starting with an excellent development history in the E92 market. RKP was responsible for bringing M3 GTS and M3 GT4 racing parts to US M3 owners, and has pursued only the best components for BMW M cars since. From bespoke exterior solutions for the M5 and M6 to the most popular rear diffuser for the new F8x M cars, RKP has consistently delivered first rate fit, quality, and style to BMW M cars.

Over the lifetime of the RKP brand, we have watched the E92 M3 go from a brand new M car that captured the attention of M fans everywhere, to a seasoned veteran that has proven its capability as an incredibly reliable both as a daily driver as a flawlessly athletic track car. Developing components for motorsport use with racing partners both in Germany and North America has granted RKP staff a wealth of knowledge about the engineering and construction of components that are functional, reliable, and attractive.

RKP’s Motorsport front lip for the E92 M3 is a true racing part, designed with ultimate performance in mind. This front lip was designed to minimize the M3’s front end lift and includes a flat floor center with louvered sides to help maintain a low pressure zone beneath the car. Functional brake ducts route directly inside of the bumper, while maintaining the oil cooler and air intake openings as supplied from BMW. Each lip is constructed from 100% carbon fiber with a specially designed core material for a dramatic increase in strength and impact protection.

The center of the lip is completely filled with core material, allowing the installer to attach the lip directly to the M3’s frame rails, sending aerodynamic loads directly into the car’s chassis.

Fantastic looking piece. Can you PM a price, shipped to 27505. Thanks.

In for installed pics.

It looks like this removes the felt under tray? If so that might actually increase ground clearance, no?

[BobS]

Can you post installed pics? From your pics you already posted, it looks like this lip has some good clearance compared to other lips on the market. I would be very interested since I have to drive in NYC often and its a nightmare with many lips available (already cracked 3).

[roastbeef]

installed pics please.

[Exclusivs]

YES!

Where's the opening that's beneath the oil cooler that's present on the stock set up? Would be hard to imagine that it's non-functional.

Yes, that's correct, this does remove the felt liners, and substitutes them with carbon fiber items that are integrated into the lip and reinforced with specialized core material for extreme strength. It will marginally improve ground clearance, but the carbon fiber item should also be much more scrape and rub resistant than the original BMW felt items, giving you a bit of extra durability.

We are installing the first lip on a client's car that has been shipped in from Pennsylvania, and will post photos once the install is complete. Expect some installed images next week!

I was just thinking that. Need to see it installed to see if it seals the duct off completely or just dumps above the flat splitter and it eventually exhausts out near the metal undertray? Have to have room for the oil cooler duct to exhaust somewhere or you get no cooling air to the oil cooler at all. It looks like it steps down or has a little bit of an angle to leave space maybe? If the stock felt stuff is going away the stock oil cooler duct should have room to vent above it. This is the reason installed pictures are important especially in the track forum

What ever happened to this project?

[MasterP]

probably forgot about the oil cooler and went back to the drawing board

[M3 Number 86]

designed to minimize lift not to generate downforce?

[Groundpilot]

Bump. Any updates on this project?

Is this product dead?
Looking for a front lip

[Bx Tpr]

Please pm price shipped to 10461. I'll take one.

[Groundpilot]

Looks like this project is dead.
The real question is whether the OP is still alive or not. He has not posted since april
