FMIC on e90

etichi · 08-27-2011, 09:49 AM

I will be installing a aftermarket FMIC on my e90. I don't have the mtech bumper and was wondering if this is an issue and if it is there anything I can do to rectify a problem? Thanks.

you know your car has a fmic stock right? you obviously don't need a mtech bumper. i guess i don't understand what your question is

A FMIC fits just fine behind the stock bumper

I have a non-mSport E90 LCI and I had no issues fitting an FMIC.

I didn't even take off my bumper cover when I installed my code 3. I have oem bumper on e90

Yes I realize. What I failed to do was articulate my question. The mtech has a larger opening for the FMIC. Is there anything I couuld do to my non mtech bumper to increase cooling efficiency?
