Lci vs non Lci retrofit
So i have an lci e91 and have located an e90 non lci replica m3 front bumper for sale locally.
From what i am seeing on here, it seems as though this will fit directly on my car as long as i reuse my lci grills. Can anyone confirm? Thank you in advance! |

It won't fit right unless you get a pre-lci hood and grills to match.
You might be able to "force" it, but fitment won't be spot on, there will be some gaps in the grill/hood area. No need to change headlights though, just hood/grill

Many people do pre- to lci conversion, so maybe sourcing pre lci hood and grills won't be too hard?
Black grills are available from eBay for a decent price too, so just the hood is the bigger purchase.

I think you are thinking of the other way around. If I putt LCI grills in then it's fine and would sit fine with my lci hood. I believe wagon and sedan are fine this way but coupe is not

Bumper, grills, hood all have to be swapped together. Only the headlights can be swapped without any other pieces. That being said, per my earlier post, you might be able to force it but not sure.
