M2 nom comp carbon fiber front lips
Hi everyone.
I'm running a 2018 M2. I'm looking for some carbon fiber front lip options that are easily available to install and remove. I've seen a bunch of options, brands and pics. Can I hear from some of you with what you have, pics on how it looks, and ease of installation? I'm not super techy on car parts installations. Thanks Ryan |

Almost everything out there requires some drilling and the addition of self tapping screws. Even if it isn't required it's highly recommended. I wouldn't trust 3M tape and OEM screw locations as being adequate enough to hold a front lip on at highway speeds.

Andrew, drilling into the stock bumper? I wasn't sure if there was bolts on the stock bumper that could be reused, adding the lip on the bumper and reattaching stock bolts. Something in that manner

If you're having a shop install it, I doubt you'll be able to keep it under $1000. Most shops are likely going to charge ~ 2 hours of labor. Depending on the shop, thats around $200-300.
You're looking for an option under $700. Short of Chinese knockoffs, theres only a couple that fall into that range if you're looking for a full front lip. https://www.perl-carbon.de/en/artike...mw-m2-f87.html I actually just ordered one of these, expect to get it in a few weeks. This is likely the only full front lip available at this price range. |

There's not too many people with this setup in the states, or anywhere for that matter. |
