M3 replica front.

Where is the best place to get a good quality M3 replica front bumper. And how much? And do they make them with the openings for the motorized front headlight sprayer things that my 335xi has? How does this front look with the rest of the car stock?

Hi Greg,

We have the full kit available for your car with fogs and the lower grill included. These are a direct fit and finish, you can search around for reviews or check out the photos below.



Below is Mr. 5's car shown without the fogs installed:

What is the fitment like with regard to the stock oil cooler for an e90 335i? I've heard people say they've had problems.

I bought one on eBay. Shipping is fast and fitment was spot-on. This is the exact same item that many of the vendors on here are selling.

the fog lights hit some ducts, you will need to trim the ducts or fabricate custom vents to go in place of the fog lights and disable them

If you have a 335 regardless if its an E90 or E92, you will either have to trim the brake ducts or completely remove them due to the new fog light placement. The M3 rep will fit All other non-turbo E90, E92 with no modifications. ( personal experience watching installation on both). Remember people, The M3 OE bumper was created without fog lights. The replica was created in the same image, and was just added fog lights to accommodate people to keep OE integrity and bypass fog light errors. There's always a price to pay when it comes to modding!

Got the entire kit from the same seller. The body shop that installed it said it was the best fitment of any body kit in the last 10 years he has been doing it. Came out perfect.

No one has any pictured with the front headlight sprayers. Are there any available for a 335xi sedan that would have the set up for the front sprayers?
