Anyone tried this on the 5er?

I saw this being up on the market recently, made my Extreme Dimensions:

Looks like the quality is pretty good. They also make it for the 3, 5, 6, 7, etc.

Has anyone installed it yet on their car? I'd love to see a real-life shot of how it looks.

I ran across the bumper on ebay the other day. All the vendors seem to use the same pictures.
I don't like that fact that it's made from fiberglass. Well its duraflex, which is supposidly stronger than fiberglass alone??

Found the link for an e90 with one of the kits made from Vacuum infusion FRP

LTMW quoted "robc1976" $1750 painted. Probably a bit more for a f10 but worth it, especially if you're local.
Buying the aftermarket bumper and having it painted will probably come out to $1500 anyway.

well noone will have this exact one produced by them...........
clearly says "pre-order sale" so it hasnt been produced yet.
its going to be "fiberglass" "duraflex"
that means its complete garbage.
wait for a PUR version (will likely not happen for 5 series though as they arent modded as much as the lower models)

ED is a legit company...

One of my roommates in college started the company out of his apartment back in the late 90's and they have grown into a well respected vendor. I wouldnt hesitate to buy one of their kits.

Looks awesome but I would never ever buy something like this without seeing the actual product. Anyone could make something look good with photoshop which is what these images are.
