Another ebay lip thread!!

I know, there has been a lot of talk about ebay lips on this forum lately. Well, I guess I'm next on the bandwagon, granted I can find one that isn't horrid.

I couldn't find the E90 Aero Lip like we saw in the previous thread, all I can find is these ugly AC replica lips, and I was wondering the following:

a. Am I just not searching the right way? Or are there genuinely no regular Aero lips on ebay right now? or for the past week, for that matter.

b. If I were to buy said AC replica lip, can it be easily modified to remove the area which covers the finisher rods? (The area I'm referring to is to the left and to the right on the corresponding side of the fog lights.

Below is the link:

EDIT:
Futhermore, review the photo below, does the part on the car resemble the part shown on the bottom right photo? Doesn't look like it, kind of misleading...

Possibly because there are no aero lip for e90?

Maybe you were looking for the mtech or msport kit? Which is the replacement for the whole bumper.

Correct. The E92 on the quoted thread is the stock bumper with BMW's (or OEM style) aero lip.

And E90 is stock bumper with another lip (non BMW).

The car in that link is a e92, not e90. If you want a lip for e90, you would have to go with non-BMW lip. There are no aero lip for e90.

+1 for hartge lip
