So finally, after 7 months of waiting, my X3MC is in 150 status and of course I already got some goodies for it such as spacers, springs, midpipe etc.
I normally always buy front lips for my cars and just shooting for the OEM+ look. I understand that RW carbon just released a lip about a month ago, but MAN! They are pricey and yes the best of the best. Just curious if there's anything else out there I'm missing? So if any of you venders want to chime in with something in the works before I spend $1500 or whatever for a front splitter. That would be cool.

Btw, I been speaking with RW tonight and the customer service is top notch. I just like options

I think the RW pictured looks great, and seems like a great bargain at $1,500 after seeing the Schnitzer LCI lip. Yikes. Go for it!

It's $1199 and I love it. I'm just accustomed to always putting eBay front lips on my cars bc they are always bound to break. However, there's a lot more ground clearance on a x3M than my Supra, amg, 240s, etc. Even when lowered haha.

Not yet, my x3mc should be here next week (hopefully) so I'm just waiting to see what else comes out. More than likely I will though because they are super cool and great quality.

I just received the RW carbon front lip and it a disappointment. The Lip look like it was rushed, edge have whitening and overall quality just feels low.

Damn hate to see that… How did you order it and are they offering a non carbon variant?

What’s the word from their Customer Service on that?

Looks good. Do you have the link for that ///M center logo piece?

I feel like the OEM X3M logo on the grille is too understated.

Rw is bad quality. Not sure why people buy it. I'd rather have a gloss black lip to match the gloss black trim around the car

Agreed with above. I’d prefer a gloss black lip

Not sure why somebody has installed a door sill plate on the bumper, looks terrible Imo

+1 especially since fitting the Maxton Design side skirts! I need an LCI X4M lip!

Damn. Kinda glad I haven't ordered it yet. Can you post pics after installed? (if you install) maybe it will turn out better once it's on the car

I’ll have it install next week, will post some photo after.
They say from first picture once install it will not show but that’s beyond my point, if I’m paying 1200$ I need it to be 1200$ worth of work, as for second picture they say maybe buff it out my self lol… this is prob last time I’m going to get anything from RW carbon

I got a gloss black from eBay and those did not fit well. I narrow down to two company before I made the decision one is Rw carbon carbon fiber lip for 1200$ other one was Ac schnitzel which is gloss black but cost 2.5k. Not much options out there for now

Weird. They was really cool and responsive when I talked to them but that was just questions about the product. Thanks man, I'd like to see once installed
