Yours looks good as well! Later E92's already have black grilles - the E90's have the ugly gray grilles

they all look great guys! Mine also fit great.

Quick question to those who bought this lip: I have this as well and it came with some screws...did you guys use those as well with the 3M tape or how did you guys secure the lip to the car?

acj75 · 10-29-2010, 02:31 PM

I just used the OEM screws from the bottom of the front bumper + 3M automotive tape to secure mine. I think my lip had holes for 5 screws if I remember correctly. It's not going anywhere!

You have an E 90, 91, 92, 93 ?

jaird23 · 10-30-2010, 09:52 AM

Spiike32..did u get ur lip from seller doe.industries???
Also will this fit 07 335i???

spiike32 · 10-30-2010, 11:49 AM

I have an e92 07 335i ... and yes it was from doe.industries.

But seeing that the basonyr packs and ships exactly the same from another member's post, I'm thinking that they are all using the same supplier.

jaird23 · 10-30-2010, 12:59 PM

Cool,,,i jus ordered me one...dats dirt cheap...thanks for sharing d info!!!

TiAgMike · 10-30-2010, 04:54 PM

i have an e90...according to the description, this wont fit my car!

Agent11br · 11-01-2010, 11:43 AM

just ordered mine from DOE as well, thanks for all the great info and pics spiike32!!!

xgoatx · 11-01-2010, 07:51 PM

yours looks good.... i got mine today and it was a bit deformed.... it had a bit of a bow right in the middle on the top.... it came with that little note that it could be heated up and it would go back to the original shape or bent back.... did yours need any heating and bending?

although even with the little bend/bubble, it still looked pretty damn good on the car. im really hoping the bend can be worked out with a little heat.

jaird23 · 11-04-2010, 10:04 AM

Got mine yesterday, perfect fit! Not bad for $103...very fast shipping too!!!

hitster · 11-04-2010, 10:23 AM

I think it looks good as it is! and yup the fitment looks great! would you mind sharing the vendor? would be interested to see what else they got for sale.

youngnastyman · 11-04-2010, 10:59 AM

How much are you guys paying to get the Lip Painted?

I did have to use a hair dryer on mine to bend it back to shape a bit... but it seems to have worked just fine.... am i the only one with this issue?

1QuikWS6 · 11-05-2010, 02:42 AM

$150 sounds reasonable

Shieldze1025 · 11-05-2010, 03:31 PM

What are you guys attaching it with? 3M double sided tape?

1QuikWS6 · 11-05-2010, 03:39 PM
