Here's the final render with the bottom rear of the bumper colored in as well.

Yeah I absolutely love it. Honestly that might be better looking than the front!

If someone could take the new bumper picture and incorporate into this render looks like it'll be really close!

I hope there will be a little more to it than that.
That's a lazy photoshop. They took the M240i and slapped on the M3's diffuser.
Didn't even bother with removing what's left over from de G42's diffuser...note the black part just above it.

Nice photoshop work.
But also very disappointed to see the uglier front grills.
I don't know why BMW messing up with their own design when developing M versions.

Still wish for dual headlights, but I like it. Not as much as F87, but the performance will make up for that.

The horizontal grille slats that BMW insists on are weird.

Agreed. Hoping an aftermarket solution is a simple swap.

Really hope the front end doesn't look so squared off. Surely after the beautiful lines and flow of the F87 they wouldn't just make the new one squared and boring?

They are sqaure, but what I've noticed from watching the G87 testing at the Nürburgring is that from certain angles the front ducts appear to look slanted like this /----\, but it's square |----| if you look at it dead on. Hard to explain, but if you're watching footage focus on the front end as the car rotates around a chicane and you'll see what I'm referring to.

Very well said, it's all perspective from vantage point. Thought the same thing when I saw it
