Here are the first photos of a facelifted M-tech/M-sport E90 Sedan in Space Gray.

Looks like the rear tailights are LED.

Not sure about LED and seems like they cover the taillights in bubble wrap.

just hope they can change the shape of that tail light. If they do a 335 sedan would be one of the coolest four door cars on the market

It's not supposed to be a radical change in the shape of the car - it's only a facelift!

IMO they've changed front and rear indicators but they've wrapped it by bubble foil . And now E90 has daytime running lights .

nice to see space grey on the e90!

the front and rear lights are masked over with that frosted bubble-wrap like stuff. i'm assuming they may be led's.

i wonder if a popular mod with the facelifted cars will be to install pre-facelift side mirrors?

nice catch. like the facelifted e60 and other newer bmw models, looks like they're all going to have the newer version angel eyes.

Why do they have to come out with that color for the e90 now? That's my favorite color, but currently its not available for the e90

I do like the stock black kidneys

+1!! I guess it was inevitable. This is the first space gray e90 I've ever seen.

as of right now you can order the e90 with the m-tech kit.

but for something that would be more similar to the offerings of the m-sport overseas, i don't think we'll see anything like that unless bmw comes out with a zhp model, like on the e46.

when you say you can order the e90 with the mkit does it mean the kit is purchased by the dealer and the dealer paints and installs for you? or is the kit installed in germany?

oh & congrats on those sways shragon... now you can go rape those hills.

thanks!!

i believe the kit is done at the vehicle distribution center. i could be wrong though. if you go to bmwusa.com and build an e90, under accessories you'll that it gives you an option for the m-aerodynamic kit.
