Not without major modifications. Its quite a pain unless you really, really want it.

go with the bmw performance one.

only thing is you lose your fogs but that didn't affect me.

you need a new hood and grills and it will fit, not too bad IMO

I'm running this bumper on my JB E90 but haven't done a photoshoot yet.

Hey if you have a pre lci bumper and want to replace it with lci mtech and of course replace hood, it would just be straight bolt on right?

I have seen it done just replace the bumper use the original hood and grilles, straight fit no problems (see 4th picture)

the owner said is was much more complicated than just a straight fit.

Anything is achievable, its just how badly you want it to make it happen.

no need to change ur hood and it's a 5 mins to install and direct fitment to oem. no mods on the fender liner and no need to change the hood. LCI grills and LCI Mtech your good to go. Im unsure why it was a pain for others or hood change (i like the lci hood).

I was bored while i await for my custom performance bumper from UK and unsure when it will arrive from, i decided to call my body shop specialist (only one who works on my ride) to slap on the LCI mtech see what the fuzz on having to change fender liners,ect. All i have was the LCI cover and took 5 mins to remove the kersher and 10 mins for the lci mtech. took longer cutting and install the mesh. its a simple 30 mins work without cutting.

will be selling this once my performance custom bumper.
