UPDATE: Spoke to Ryan today and they are not interested in making it because the OG M2 is old now, they already offer plenty of lip spoilers for the OG, and they have too many other projects going on with newer cars. So unless we can find another (reputable) carbon fiber manufacturer who is willing to take this on, the project is dead.

Well that's a bummer. They should've invested time into a clean lip rather than the ugly GP lip they always advertise. Makes the M2 look like it has a cleft lip lol.


Guess we will have to settle for the Edison Composites which is the closest to the M2C Lip

Old? Surely the biggest aftermarket audience is for cars coming out of warranty/leases. Choice for other bmws past and present is huge e46 and on especially.

Its a shame as mentioned several times nobody has come up with a front lip that looks proper for the car that doesnt look tacky. Most are too big and accentuate the tall body of the m2. For me with a lowered car, no lip at all looks better.

Agreed it is a shame, strange reason too considering there are probably around as many OG M2 vs. M2C that will be produced, and the M2C already has a great lip from BMW so seems like you'd want to corner the OG M2 market...maybe I'll just one-off fab one for myself.

This is what i've found: https://autoid.uk.com/products/ediso...-bmw-m2-series

I think the guys at European Auto Source can source one as well. They might have better pricing. Can't hurt to ask

Let us look into it.

If we can get the front lip under £899.95, full pre-preg carbon fibre, OEM fixings.

Would you all be interested?

If you made a splitter with working brake cooling ducts, that doest jut out too much and wo the side wings for OG M2 in either CF or Black plastic - I'd be interested

I've been speaking to Ryan@IND-Distribution and he said they may be willing to have their RKP division make their own version if we can get at least 25 commitments. Having them made by IND would assure top quality from a trustworthy manufacturer. I should have pricing based on this quantity soon and will update this thread once I get it.

PLEASE ADD A POST BELOW IF YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED.

Below are pics from the questionable version currently sold elsewhere.

What version is shown in the pics? Cause that is a OG m2 is it not?

It’s a knockoff on eBay and every review I’ve read by people that have bought it said it has fitment issues and the quality is poor.
