Crazy money!
I believe those only fit the M bumper though. It's a different type for the non M 6cyl bumper @t-tony has them on his Z3 if you want too look up his pics to see the difference.

I did wonder that he had said they fit both when the bumpers are completely different, I am still looking for a front bumper so I can make custom splitters very similar, just need a damaged bumper.

I have damaged bumper but like most it's damaged at the bottom edge quite badly so won't make for a good basis for a mould I reckon - it's cracked and lost its shape so not quite straight..been meaning to skip for years now!

There is this one on eBay which is cheap and although damaged seems to be straight in the right places:

What about side sills, can you mould those? They are nearly all rusty now and replacements are around £150+vat each from BMW, no pattern makers yet.

Thats not a bad idea and one would last a life time, not sure the purists would use them though, not that they would use the splitters either.

I have a pair nice to see there going up in value :D I'm sure people would be interested in reproduced parts but as with anything would come down to price.
In my opinion, this is the only combination of Z3 bumper and splitters that don't look like someone has randomly screwed tea trays on...

IMHO I think they look bloody stupid, looks like you have given the car a botox fat lip.....

That's where we all differ mate, IMO the M front bumper looks great as it is and I think the splitters look too big, however the standard bumper is lacking in depth,

Yes but not in the UK and shipping makes it a problem/cost.
Well, as I proposed a while ago now, with quit a few members looking for new sills, organize a group buy and some one goes over and picks them up. @David has been to see Stormy when he came over here to collect my hardtop.

We all have our own opinions Sean, it's just that some have a more diplomatic way of expressing them, that's all. If we all liked the same things we would driving clone's of each others cars. ;)

ps. I will see if I can find those pictures when I get home from Pool.

Yeah, but it suits your car as it has been modded very well, I just don't think it works on OEM as has been said, looks like a bolt on Halfrauds item.
