      Good luck! Only way to go that route is to go euro really.. =\ 

      the IS/M5 air dam attaches to the US standard bumper. I've thought about modifying an IS/M5 air dam to fit on the front of my bumperless E28, and realized the amount of work, isn't worth it, an it'd destroy an IS/M5 airdam.

                                      It's a Paul Ladue (West Coast Custom Parts) Alpina euro front valence replica. This would need mounting brackets in order to mount to the us frame rails as Merl did.

                                        It's a pain in the ass to be honest but the end result is worth it. The air dam itself isn't that expensive but getting the euro bumpers to go with it is. There is a pic somewhere on the Interwebs with a air dam like this and no bumper ... it actually looked pretty good.
