"M" Sport, "M" Tech, & 335IS bumper... Same?

SIN_CITY_TROLL · 09-28-2011, 12:02 AM

Hey guys,

Before I spend money on a carbon fiber splitter, I'm trying to make sure these are all the same bumper.

I was told the M Sport package bumper on the 09+ e92 bumpers and M tech bumper, and the bumper on the 11' 335IS is the same bumper. Other than the fog light difference, are they really the same??

This is what I want to buy...

The crimson red on the bottom with the bumper without the fog lights is the bumper for the 335IS... the other 3 are the M Sport and M tech bumpers... they look all the same...

All the pics above are the LCI Msport.

The ebay product is for pre-LCI. It won't fit your car. Notice that the pre-LCI bumper is slightly different. The line underneath the fog light is more flat.

Well damn... That sucks... Anyone seen a splurged for the new post LCI bumper yet?

Thread drift... Bumpers aside...
What is the difference, marketing or otherwise, between M-Tech and M-Sport? or is one a misnomer?
