or do you need the bmw perf front apron too?

Yes, you need the performance bumper for those. Here is the new iCarbon lip that's just about to be released.

Thanks, I sent my response as you were sending yours. However, is it possible to retrofit BMW PP carbon splitters onto the standard 135i front spoiler?

solid77 · 11-29-2009, 11:38 PM

yea i'm wondering if you can just drill holes and the lines will match up with the bumper? i like i like the oem splitter style opposed to lips.

I doubt it highly!

The performance bumper is flat along the bottom while the standard 135 cover curves up. It would look really weird if you can attach it at all. Besides the curve of the bumpers may not be the same either.

You can not fit the BMW ones to the stock 135i bumper. I tried it when they first came out.

that sucks

nobody makes a replica for the stock bumper? iCarbon should make some in addition to the lip they already make

The M-sport already comes with the performance bumper?

M-Sport comes with the M-Sport bumper. The performance bumper is different and is a dealer installed add-on.
