E90 M3 Conversion?

I've seen a few E92's converted since it's easier to go that way, but not many E90's. I need to replace my front bumper and fenders some time in the future and my headlights are having a problem (adaptive xenons). I figure if I have to replace most of the front end anyways, why not go with a wider m3? I'm in no rush and willing to wait for cheap used parts.

I figure I would need:
E90 M3 hood
E90 M3 fenders
E90 M3 bumper
E90 M3 grills
E90 M3 fender liners
E90 M3 radiator support?
E92 Non-M adaptive headlights?

Does that sound about right?

Sounds right to me, this should be sick! but what are you going to do about the rears? any plans to widen the rear fenders too?

Have you thought about getting an M3 rep bumper and replacing your fenders with OEM? Would be cheaper and keep the front and rear the same width.

Not sure about the rear yet. I would like the wider front and the rear of the M is not flared that much.
