E90 LCI Msport Fog Light Delete

Hi All,

Just a shot in the dark but would the performance bumper air ducts work to delete fog lights? I don't have fogs stock and would rather have ducts anyway. Just wondering if there is a solution out there.

possibly. I just installed the brake duct and left the foglight area open. you cannot tell it is missing unless you get real close and put your head up there.

Whoa whoa whoa. Back up the bus. Can you get a better picture with flash please?

You used the performance bumper brake ducts? What other pieces did you buy to make it fit?

Bump, I would like to know as well; I have an LCI M sport bumper that I would like to fog delete and need to know what parts I need to purchase.

Can you please take a picture of that?

I got no air ducts now and it looks bad if you look closely :-/

Maybe the 335is air duct would fit with cutting ?

Ill post pics if you want...i have a 09 335 e90 msport...i bought the 335is air ducts so i can delete the fogs....they DO NOT FIT. they are 2 INCHES. Too short. For the time being I uninstalled my fog lights and put the grills back in so it's just an open fog light hole

Im a idiot and i got pissed while i was doing this and deleted the pics of the duct in the bumper out of anger haha. I have 1 pic of me and my dad at the track but its not good...ill get a better one tomorrow...i will say it looks pretty cool and my oil tems are now 10* cooler with the fog light gone!! I would pop them out if i were you..tape up the fog light connections too!






I was actually thinking of doing something like..those turbo air funnels where the fogs used to be so its not a unfinished look and hopfully looks #racecar lol

can i know your mods and your time ? also are you rwd or x drive ? the fog delete looks great but with grills it would look a little better because the empty holes i know are functional but its missing something if you know what i mean good looking car btw !

Reviving as there aren't many threads on this topic for e90's with LCI Mtech.

Has anyone tried the M3 ducts? They look to be about the same size. Thanks idratherbesurfing for confirming hte 335is ones are too short, sorry you had to be the one to figure it out for all of us.
