the splitters you can get from emotors2000 on ebay for $139 painted (http://www.ebay.com/itm/PAINTED-BMW-...-/321643432058) and shipped. the lip, if you can find it link me because i cannot find it anymore. I've found a universal flat lip on ebay for $99 but not sure it fits the e90. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/FITS-05-10-B...e6a2cc&vxp=mtr)

I dont have the lip but the splitters have poor paint. the color match and fitment are great. I'd recommend 3m clear vinyl protectant over them before you install. That is what im doing with the second set i have.

The LCI for the E90 was "left behind" in the aftermarket world HOPEFULLY I can get a local shop to make me some custom parts (I semi-designed a lip) for the Msport (could see about the regular LCI bumper) and doing some side extension pieces for the skirts

Thanks! I really like the lip and how it turned out. Well I initially purchased the lip to use as a template to design and make my own custom lip, but when I got it and dry fit it, I really liked the look so I decided to paint it and mount it lol.

It's still temporary as I will use it some time this summer as a template to create my own, because I want to make one thats a bit more custom and tailored to the LCI bumper w/ splitters, kind of a fun side project. (i.e. adjust some curves, more depth, and a bit less in width).

My only gripes is since it isn't a carbon fiber lip, it doesn't have the rigidity that it would as if it was carbon. So as is, it's a bit flimsy and a bit thin. However it's super super light, and has a good curved lip at the front, so it doesn't appear as thin as it actually is.

Nice. Seems that everyone converts to the mtech, m3 rep, or m1. No love for lci.

Also, the girl in the car looks pissed or really confused.
She probably wanted out.
