What's missing in the market? (Painted parts)

Ryan@IND · 11-17-2009, 02:27 PM

Guys we just wanted to check what painted parts you think are missing in the market. We are thinking about offering the IND molded parts and custom painted plenum covers to customers outside of illinois.

IND is always there to help the community, so if the M3Post community needs some paint work or product that isn't made yet, we always try to accomodate.

IND painted Plenum cover

VRS front poly lip with mold

Challenge Diffuser with mold

VRS front lip and rear diffuser with mold

Yes, I'm talking specifically about the black MESH portion.

I've never liked that detail on this car, or the mesh hood grill on my E46 M3 either.

Love the vrs molded bumper!

TLud · 11-17-2009, 04:57 PM

Gloss black hood vents and rear mesh? I'm interested in both of these...

montreal red · 11-17-2009, 09:30 PM

hey guys, send me a quote on how much it would cost to custom paint my intake plenum like that car in the first pic. i will send in my stock intake plenum.

Tio///M · 11-18-2009, 05:49 AM

I'm down with the stock intake plenum colored! I really like that.

Epacy2 · 11-18-2009, 06:33 AM

Love the piano black. Would jump on that.

Nice looking plenum too!

MMMorish · 11-18-2009, 09:54 AM

I'd do the intake plenium, front and rear mesh grills and hood vents in gloss black.

Nate@IND · 11-18-2009, 01:09 PM

Close up photo of the Atlantis plenum cover.

Ryan@IND · 11-18-2009, 01:20 PM

Thank you for all the feedback guys. We have pricing ready for the plenum cover, hood vents, and rear bumper mesh. Pm me for more information.

BUMP and Mad PROPS to IND!

I have the painted BW hood air/vents from IND, but yet to install. Will fire out some pics next week for sure!

FStop7 · 11-20-2009, 04:42 PM

What about the black trim on the side mirrors? I'd like to see body colored trim with black mirror caps, like the M3 Edition.

We will look into the possibility of offering this as a product, however, if you are willing to part ways with your mirrors for a few days we would be more than happy to paint them in the M3 Edition theme for you. Pm sent with more details.

Keep the suggestions coming fellas

What's missing? Easy, non overpriced stuff.

KANdaddy · 11-20-2009, 09:27 PM

What's missing?

1. Cool stuff for the e90 M3.
2. Companies that actually produce products in a timely manner after getting us excited about their "prototype" products.....only to have us still waiting for the production product 8+ months later, *ahem*Challengeproducts*ahem*....

With being a new brand to the market, having the parts be right first time out was important to Challenge vs. rushing it out by fastest means. Also, the economy hasnt been the strongest you may have noticed

Companies are usually a little more reluctant at times like this too.
