Best aftermarket E92 M3 side skirts?

As the title says, looking to swap my M-Sport side skirts for the M3-style ones. Is there a a go-to brand/company to use?

I've read several threads here on this matter (use search) and the general concensus is there isn't one that fits 100%. Even the best ones have a bulge near the front.

Yes, I've noticed that bulge on some peoples pictures and always thought it looked pretty bad. Is it something a bodyshop could flush out or is the fitment totally off?

Agree. Mine are from jgMods which is now TunerStock. It's the best you will find although not perfect.

Here's mine:

I had decent luck with the M0dBargains skirts, but still needed the body shop to trim near the front clips.

Depends on the quality of paint being used. $200-$500 range is fair for sub par paint to OE quality. I would go for something in the middle which will give you a long lasting quality paint job that isn't going to chip or fade too easily.

Good to know, I have a set of your side skirts on the way to me now. I'll post impressions here!
