thorburn 121 Report post Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) I believe they go by 'bad boy' bonnets. Don't think there is any company that makes them. Would maybe be a bit iffy on if they are legal or not.

E30 325i Rag-Top 2959 Report post Posted June 21, 2011 The differences over standard are the blacked out grilles (which is an easy DIY) and the lower eyebrows over the head-lights, which I would guess can be added on to a standard bonnet. Not really my taste, I would be more interested in the additional lower splitter under the M-spec bumper! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E36 M 9 Report post Posted June 21, 2011 Oh yeah the grills are easy enough, but ive seen more than a dozen of cars overseas with this bonnet and wondered where/who/how you get it. Doesn't look like an attatchment to me but probably wrong. Yeah that front splitter looks awesome, maybe an addition someday down the track.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted June 21, 2011 If it's not an off-the-shelf aftermarket product it'll be a custom job. Easy enough to weld some extra sheet metal onto a factory bonnet, grind it back, bog and paint and viola! Custom bonnet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smac01 12 Report post Posted June 22, 2011 I know it's all personal taste... but if that wagon had a stock bonnet it'd look 10x better!! Each to their own. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E36 M 9 Report post Posted June 22, 2011 Definately wouldn't get one, i reckon it looks mint, gives it a touch of evil, but like you said, everyone has their own personal tastes, if not the world wouldn't be the same. Just looks like an aftermarket hood that you can buy in one piece, wouldn't of thought you could weld btis of metal on to it, if they did it must of been a bloody good job!
