E36General discussion and technical help for (E36) 1992-1999 3 series cars. 318, 323, 325, 328.
Go with OEM M3. I love the DTM but if you go oem theres another optin. Get OEM. If you like the other look you can get the DTM Lip which looks exactly like the reiger bumper on top of the M3 one with just a line showing that it was a addon. Still you leave both options open.

my take-
I'm 90% sure that oem m3 bumpers are manufactured in a high quality injection-molded polyurethane plastic. ABS plastic is what many manufacturers use for bumpers but its inherent inconsistencies renders it far inferior by comparison. polyurethane parts bend and remain pliable after years of wear unlike ABS plastics that are brittle and stiff and become more brittle and stiff with climate changes and age. not to say that ABS plastic makes a bad bumper, either material will outlast fiberglass.
