Anyone know if this is the case for a pre-LCI E90 m3 rep bumper as well?

I was told it was the same, and for E90/E92 but will let you know as that is what I have too. I attached the one I ordered.

Just had back surgery last week, so got to sit tight for a couple weeks for car work but looks like it would fit up correctly. Got this and a SC to install so hoping to be fit for fight soon!

So has anyone actually tried replacing the center grill on the pre-LCI E90 m3 rep bumper?

Seattlesquash, the new grill you ordered seems to have the area at the left/right end completely blocked whereas your old one (and the one on my rep) seems to have the entire grill area open. I wonder if there is a different part no. for one that is completely open.

I think that is the part connecting to bumper, and not visible once connected, the curvature is matching as far as I saw lining them up, but will find out soon.
