I concur. A few dozen or so "skid plates" made for an ardent group of E53 enthusiasts shouldn't posed any infringement risk since this particular part is discontinued and no longer available for sale from BMW. I'm going to paint my plate silver and also remove and paint the inner grille screen that's mounted just above silver also. Should look sharp!

Question, how should we pay the down payment?
Does he take PayPal by any chance?

RB, thank you for posting those pics!
Kristophe, I'm asking Slimmbones if he wants to accept payments on a per person basis or if he wants me to wait till I have 10 people signed on for this, then accept payments from all. this way not only a few people have paid him sporadically.

Halfway there guys! I pm'ed a few members and I suggest if anyone knows any "non-iS" owners to shoot them a message for this great opportunity.
Agreed that we should gather our 10, then Mike (Clockwork) should contact Slimmbones for his paypal info, then post the paypal address and give us the go ahead to send him deposit. Once he confirms all 10 paid their half then its 3 weeks of biting your nails boys.

I don't believe you can be sued for an infringement of sorts for reproducing their part. Just so long you don't claim its original. It should obviously for this purpose be labeled a reproduction part. People make reps of anything, from wheels to spoilers. Nothing illegal about it unless you are representing it as an original.

Bianca98, this is definitely NOT an original Equipment part, just a Replica of it. you're right.
It will have NO Logo or part number of any kind on there.

Considering it's this hard to round up 10 buyers (non-iS) I'd say if you wanted to get in on this you should do it because I doubt there would be a second run.
SammyD is out as well I got an email from him last night, he just bought Style 87's and Titan Silver trim so he is tapped out for modding cash lol.

What the heck, having purged my oil filter cap sins in the confessional thread, count me in. I'm due for an E53 parts fix and this is a good or better than the alternatives immediately in front of me, since I haven't yet found a set of 132 style wheels [or comparables] locally to satisfy my summer tire jones .........

FYI i can machine the skidplates for members with electroplating or powercoating. Or can send them primed so you can paint match them. I made one for my truck, i just gotta finnish painting it. Its great you that want front end protection with a little style. $190 ea. Also if you want i can replicate the decorative skid for around 150-200 (have to price out materials and see if i can find one to replicate)
