I checked your website, they all come with the same parts (rear bumper, diffusor, brackets)

Thank you.

Answer from Evans:
Yup, the rear bumpers in both those kits are the same...however the diffusors are waaay different.

Evan@Tischer · 03-27-2009, 10:24 AM

Thanks cpe90.

Yup, the m aero rear bumper and bmw performance rear bumper are the same. Cool thing is, if you already have the m aero rear bumper, you can purchase the diffusor pack (and carbon fiber insert) to completely change the look!

Update...just recieved a bunch of these goodies! Here's a pic of the front bumper 'in the raw'...

Still a few questions - does the front bumper come with any mesh screen? From the geneva pics it doesn't look like it but would be nice to confirm.

And for those of us retrofitting, what do we do with the foglight connections? Does the kit come with a resistor so to not throw codes?

E90SLAM · 03-31-2009, 09:43 AM

too bad i can't get the front bumper....ACC wun work with it...

waterp7 · 03-31-2009, 12:37 PM

Evan,

You were mentioning the M-tech sides and rear are the same for the M Performance kit?

If so,

Will the M Performance front match?

therealm3 · 03-31-2009, 03:21 PM

same questions....

Thanks!

MemphisRheins · 03-31-2009, 03:25 PM

What exactly happens with the foglights when this bumper is purchased

ibd12nv · 03-31-2009, 03:46 PM

Wow the prices look great as compared to what I'm seeing here in the flyer. It would be a shame to order from the states and still beat the prices here in Germany. Headed strait to the dealer in the morning.

Heartware · 04-01-2009, 03:29 AM

I just got mine a few days ago!

I think there are 2 different type of diffusers.
One for the pre LCI and one for the LCI they're totaly different.

The one I got does not fit the E90 M-sport rear!
I am going back to the dealer today and have it checked out!

Here are some pictures.

Heartware · 04-01-2009, 08:58 AM

I just got the installation notes from the dealer.

You'll have to cut away a piece of the rear bumper.
se pic.

Septro · 04-01-2009, 01:50 PM

Heartware - do you mean even for the part specific to non-LCI, you still have to cut the M-tech bumper?

Heartware · 04-01-2009, 05:11 PM

If you have the M-tech bumper you'll need to CUT IT!

If you have the Performance bumper, then you don't!

ibd12nv · 04-02-2009, 05:22 AM

That's interesting and really good information to have going into this. Do you have to write up for those pics as well. Want to save for them for later.

Heartware · 04-02-2009, 10:10 AM

I'll have to translate it for you!
I am preparing for an exhibition next week. I ‘ll give it a try the week after that !

Any details on when you can order pre-face lift fronts? Your catalog says you currently cannot order them.
