Looking for M3 fenders without vents? I know, I'm crazy.

I’m looking for aftermarket M3 coupe fenders without side vents that fits to a standard 335i body and still be flushed to a standard 335i front bumper? I have not seen anything like this so far (or I haven't tried hard enough). Does anyone know?

Or do I have altered a M3 fender to fit it the way I stated above?

Get OEM M3 fender and fill up the vent...I strongly recommend contacting LTBMW for job like this. It won't be cheap but I know it's worth it Drive to So.Cal now!

Wait...if you fill the vents up dont you just have a standard 335 fender?
If you're looking for the fender flare that comes with the M3 fender check with a local body shop and see if they want to try to bondo or mold something on there, but I doubt you would get many takers since I believe the front fender is poly-eurethane and not fiberglass.
If you try to fit the OEM M3 fender to the 335 you will need other OEM M3 front components or you will certainly have a gap between the front bumper and the hood and fenders.

Yeah, I'm familar with the differences and possible fit issues. That's why I wanted to see if there aleardy a aftermarket front M3 flared fender that fits to a standard E92 and avoids this problem -thanks though.
