I would suggest sending it back and getting the one from Mod bargains. it will be a spot on fit. Here is the side view of mine

oh and as far as the bumper.... I'm biased but I'd go aero because its black. Any other color I'd say m-tech but with black you lose all of the lines and detail that make the mtech/lip combo sweet.

Also, mind posting some more pics? Since your ride is sorta similar to mine I want to see how the m3 side skirts look.

One thing I know (after going through it many times) is that if the test fitment isn't right, send it back at the vendors cost. They basically bet that people will just deal with having poor fitment. But usually if you complain they will take it back.
Some may not but that's when you threaten to leave poor feedback.

There should be absolutely no reason why a person should accept a poor fitted part. Send it back and make the vendor take responsibility. My car has quite a few aftermarket parts. Even my Vorsteiner trunk had issues (3 times) I sent it back and made Vorsteiner take responsibility for their poor fitment. They are an honorable company and did just that. But I wish they did quality checks. My third trunk was perfect. Again never accept less than perfection from your parts, if one compromises and accepts the part as poorly fitting, then it enables the vendor not to do anything about it.

Just my $0.02.

Mac.

But if I'm not installing it according to their instructions, then I'm kinda screwed. I dunno. I will be back with an update.

I like the look of my aero lip but I need a change. Debating on mtech or m3 rep.

Great looking car man.

I suffer from the green eyes monster

I buy a white car and wish it was black. Then I buy a black car and wish it was white and so on.

Got to love a clean black car
