Pic Request: E90 Pre-LCI w/ M3 Front Bumper with license plate

ZZZZ · 01-26-2012, 03:19 PM

I find pics of how the bumper looks on a non-M e90 Sedan. But they never have a license plate on them. Anyone have a pic of one with a plate on it? Hope the plate will help make the M3 bumper on a e90 sedan look a little less 'in your face'.

Actually it looks like there is no license plate holder that fits the M3 bumper unless you get one that goes in the tow hook. Very disappointing.

Get a skene plate mount.

To be honest, I think those plate mounts look 'tacked on' compared to the OEM plastic mounts that wrap around the entire license plate and the plate 'sits in' which are flush against the bumper. I hope I can modify my stock plate mount for the M3 bumper. Don't care about drilling holes into the thing, I'd never be removing it.

Thanks, I'll check it out from home. The pics are blocked from the internet I'm on now.

damn you. I am on hold right now calling my body shop to cancel my order of the m3 bumper to switch with mtech. My car is the same color as yours.... now you have me thinking twice, that looks really good, not ricey at all. Now I'm stuck on what to do. Plan on keeping stock sport suspension and 17" sport rims. Have a gallery I can check out? Also has anyone tried retrofitting the stock m3 sedan mount on their aftermarket bumper?

Also what is the red behind your kidneys?
