M3 fender "gills"

Anyone know where I can buy something thats looks identical to the M3 chrome gill thingys. I think they would look smoking hot on my black G. I know I would have to get someone to do some cutting around the fender to get the right look, but I think it would be so worth it. Thanx

it's his/her car. let them do as they wish.

if you can find a pair, the closest thing would be the INGS fender but I think they stopped making them with the bar.

they look exactly like the SL class from Mercedes which is why I think they had to stop making them.

wow, nobody likes that huh? I can understand if I was looking for some stick on "universal" type thing. But I want something that will actually look nice and clean (Plus once I get my SC installed, and start smoking M3's it will be kind of like a little slap in the face )

IMO....rice is any part that was designed for another car and modified or copied to fit your car. I.e. Side grills, angel eyes, etc...

Just do it. I think it would look nice if you can get it just right. Put it on towards the top of the fender.... It would have to be strictly custom of course. No one offers that and it costs like $300 for the pair from bmw. Good luck.

For God's sake man! Don't do it! You don't put "signature" parts from another car on yours. It's one thing to use a spoiler, wheel, accessory, but another to use a trademark.
