Think it will fit?

Hey everyone,

So I've been searching for a lip for e92 m3 rep front bumper
Only option that has been verified to fit is the V-style rep sold by a few vendors here

Heres the question, is there any difference between the e90 m3 rep and e92 m3 rep bumpers? Difference in dimension?
From the images I've attached below, I cannot tell a difference.
Will a lip once installed on a e90 m3 rep work on e92 m3 rep bumper?

Lip link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-E90-M3-H...e57d34&vxp=mtr

M3 bumpers on e90 vs e92
Images found on google:





Thanks!

The bumpers are not the same in dimensions, m3 parts are not compatible with the rep. I know from looking into this myself, there is a lip made for the rep though, and another company is getting ready to release another made for the rep.

(EDIT: I just clicked the link and that is mounted on a rep in the pic, so yes that will work.)

Thanks for the feedback!
However, my question is, will e90 m3 rep bumper lip work on e92 m3 rep bumper

I knew that m3 rep and m3 oem has different dimension

5 out of 10 parts don't normally add up unless you slightly modify it. trim and blah blah. but any bodyshop should make it work if its very close.

$175USD shipped :P

I bought one a couple months back for my m-sport but then realized it only works well with the m3 bumper. Too bad I sold it already though
