Do pre-LCI lips/splitters fit LCI as well?

I assume the bottom contour of the bumper hasn’t changed, but wish to confirm.

Thanks

Taking a wild guess I'd say no, just comparing the two the bumpers ads different. M Perf parts has an actual lip for the LCI models, not sure it's been released yet though.

I’m being told yes by a vendor. Soon to find out when I get the car and the lip! Crossing fingers...

Indeed, but not necessarily all surfaces. I’ll let y’all know if the lower lip doesn’t fit the bottom surface.

Anyone know if the Pre-LCI splitters work on the LCI?

I think yes but need to confirm when I get my car back from PPF. I have a Vorsteiner splitter that I can align to the bumper and look for fitment issues.

I’m either going to sell the splitter, or keep it and possibly install it in the spring. I’ve decided it might be too low for my risk appetite particularly in the winter months with snow.

TY, I have splitters in my garage that I've not installed on my 19' M5C .. I'll be ordering an LCI M5 in the coming months and just curious as to fitment.

Folks, sorry for the long wait but I wanted to be sure before posting this.

I can confirm that the bottom surface of the LCI bumper is materially different from pre-LCI and that results in front lip spoilers intended for pre-LCI will NOT fit 2021+ cars like mine.

Thanks
