Smile Front Bumpers: Mtech vs M3 replica

I have a pre lci e90 (sparkling graphite gray) and would like to upgrade my front bumpers. I'm confuse if I should go with the M3 replica for e90 or the Mtech . I'm new to the game and open for suggestions...

if youre going to do your car aggressively with a lot of body pieces and aggressive offset wheels, go m3. if you are planning to be more conservative in nature, get the m tech

It really is. You can read up all you want about how to please a woman, you can look at all the diagrams in the world, but just like the clitoris, you won't know what the hell an apex is before you actually find it.

I like the M3 but only with the front lip on it. Mtech looks really good with the splitter you can buy for it.

Thanks to 07_335i_AW for posting some pics (planning to throw some bbm lm's also to my ride this year) and the rest of you guys...I'd like to have the aggressive look. M3 bumpers with front lip.

Has anyone brought those front bumpers from "ModMy3"?? I wonder how the fit was...
