F30 MSport vs F80 M3 sideskirts - are they the same?

When I had an e90 I swapped my MSport sideskirts for some replica M3 ones - while the difference was subtle - I liked it - question is - are the sideskirts on the F30/F80 the same or are they subtly different like with the E90? If the latter any good sources? Anyone done this? If the former...moot point :-)

I've looked at enough pics that I've managed to confuse myself - so forum insight would be appreciated -

ps- I say this with the utmost respect (and a sense of humor)..... I am not looking for subjective opinions on this I'm simply looking for objective facts if you can help

Thanks All!

Np. It's a different shape altogether. M3 ones are like an outward 3D curve.

i see that now - I like it - now I just have to figure out if my oem side blades will work with the m3 sideskirts like they do with my m-sport sideskirts - I imagine they will

Thanks again

Are you talking about the sideskirt extensions? Not sure that they will. But you can give it a shot..

All bodywork except the trunk and the doors are different on the F80 vs the F30, so I wouldn't count on the skirts mounting right.

The OP mentioned that he was looking for replica M3 sideskirts though so it should be fine. Also, I have replica M3 sideskirts and I it seems like the extensions for F80 seem to fit my sideskirts when I tried to fit it without taping/screwing them on.

I only misread the first post. My mistake.
