M4 bumpers on 335i

Has anyone got any pictures of the M4 style front & rear bumpers on a 335i coupe? Ive seen the M4 rear bars 4 sale but no picture of what they look like on the car, it could be good, it could look bad, hard to tell!

This is from carwear.com.au
Looks nice, was thinking of getting it for my car.
Has anyone used them before? Fitment ok?
Not many reviews online... the few I found were not so good for other items (lights, etc).

Edit: Just realised its for '10-'13...

I am getting the rear bar and see how it looks whilst the car is getting the front fixed through insurance. Would have changed my 1M front to try the M4 one but they don't make it for pre LCI!

It's a very polarising look. Some people love it, some people hate it. look up the Sean Rho's blue E92. His username is Mashimarho. He's an absolute post whore on the forums and his instagram has looaadds of photos.

They've used an image from another shop AFAIK, I believe that white E92 has had a M4 grafted onto a E92 bar. As you see they advertise it for a LCI yet the image is pre LCI (pre LCI headlight)

I've been looking at it, I like it from some angles but others look a bit odd.

For example: it looks too "bulgy"

Thanks guys. Yes i have seen the blue and the white cars before. Your right Koncept, it does look a bit "bulky" but i think it is because of the space grey paintowork! Ive seen a front bar on a yellow car before, looked ok. But i am yet to see how the M4 rear bar looks on a 335i, no pics anywhere!

Will do mate, but it won't be for at least another month as I wait for a 1M bunper to be shipped from overseas.

I was super super super keen on the M4 front, as it looks they are really easy to get a hold of from several local suppliers. It would be easier to be back on the road again than getting my 1M bumper from overseas once more should I hit anothet Kangaroo.

I think the M4 bumper will not look good on a car that is firstly not a dark colour and secondly something that doesn't look aggressive. At the bare minimum, you would need to be quite low with nice rims and would work even better with an M3 bonnet. If someone was to slap it onto an almost stock car, it would look totally ridiculous

It's this bulge I'm talking about the 4 series must have a squarer front than the E92 which makes it stick out like that.

If you do go ahead with it let me see it in person, I've been thinking about this option for a while now.

A company in Brisbane tried that with M3/1M bumper...
they ended up with a pile of scraps on the floor and an M3 without a bumper...
if you find someone who is capable let me know

Its a costly exercise, Peter at bodyform would be the go to guy for this stuff.

I like the pics of the bar on the pre LCI as it doesn't have those cheesy looking foglights!

Looking at the pic though I dont think it has been grafted as when you look at the headlight washer covers they aren't E92 items?
