The best looking bodykit is...

i'm presuming this has been posted before, sorry if it has in advance.

What do y'all think is the best body kit? AC Schnitzer, Lumma, Breyton, Kerscher, M Sport, Racing Dyamics, Viniati, Hartge, what else?????

Also, is there ONE thread with all of their pictures side by side for comparison?

if not, maybe we can make it this thread.

I'm trying to decide, I think I want a bodykit, but I don't know which one.

I choose Breyton. I say if you're gonna do a bodykit, go aggressive...otherwise what's the point?





Link to Breyton's E90. And yes, that's a 306hp E90! If they can tune the EPROM to accept these mods, they should be able to tune the 325i's the accept the 330i's 3-stage intake, right?

Unfortunately I haven't gotten the bug yet. I really like the OEM look with with 162's. I'm sure in a year or two there's going to be even more styles coming out from manufactures that will catch my eye. Is just me or is the Viniati kit really ugly?

my vote is
FRONT -- kerscher front bumper
REAR-----kerscher rear add on - for quad pipes
m tech rear for dual pipes
SIDESKIRTS- NONE -awaiting e90 m3
FULL M BODYKIT- finishes with a close 2nd place, front end loses to kerscher because it has the same size centre air dam and no integrated lower corner side fins/- need to retrofit CF add ons
will be using m rear for my car as i will not be retrofitting quad pipes..

That Kerscher bumper is nice. What's the cost associated with it? Any other pictures? The Breyton kit comes as a close second.

Well i'm glad Hamann isn't the favorite. Hamann doesn't blend seamlessly into the design of the E90. It does carry a non-stock look to it but it's very understated. It gives the E90 a more aggressive stance and that's it. It doesn't take too much away from the original design. So, many people voted for ACS. I think ACS is best on E60 and absolutely the worst ACS kit is for the E90. I rather go mtech than ACS.

The best looking for E90 I think Hamann. For the majority of BMWs, ACS wins. I award the Hartge H10 (full body&rims) over ACS with overall design. Non-bmw Hamann Gallardo/F430.

note: I forgot to mention, the full bumper replacement of Hammans is the only thing I think looks like trash.


Question for RODY:
I've been meaning to ask Hamann owners. How does the front spoiler lip attach to the bumper?

the lip attatches to the bumper with the origional screws, so no glue or something like that

I like Hamann, but think the double fog lights is weird. I like Kerscher front, because of the large scoop, but can't stand the ricer rear spoiler.

Overally, I like Bretyon, but since they don't make it in urethane, thats a major downer. I like ACS from the front, but not a fan on TiAg. I think it looks better on Black or dark colors. I"ll post a pic of Lummar, they make a sweet one too.
