Hey all,
Two questions:

First off, I'm thinking of getting the Msport body kit for my pre-lci e90 335i and my question is this:

How much lower are the msport parts vs. the stock ones? Basically, if I were to only get the front or rear bumper and wait on side skirts and the other bumper would that visually mess up the lateral floor line of the car? Should I just wait and do it all at once? tried searching and doing some research but came up empty handed. Hope that question makes sense.


Secondly, M3 or Msport front bumper? Just looking for opinions, I'm undecided.

Get the e90 LCI msport front not the m3

Mine's a pre-lci, so I don't think an lci msport would work, would it?

They are the same height. LCI Msport front will fit with new hood and grilles.

Awesome, thanks for the info!

Here's mine. It works. Got the front bumper only from Sonic Tuning (sonictuning.com). They had the Euro version without the side reflectors and without the headlight washers. I didn't miss them. Had an accident and replaced the bumper and hood with the lci M-sport version and side shots show no design incompatibility with pre-lci. Enjoy your conversion!

There isn't difference in height between Pre-lci stock vs M-sport bumber.

If you are going to change to Pre lci m-sport you need new foglights the stock one won't fit. Also you need to change the Foglight connectors from the car.

You need a Adapter for under panel, because the stock under panel doesn't fit properly to m-sport bumper.Meaning you can't secure it to place with all the screws from center without that adapter.

About a month ago i changed my stock bumper to pre-lci m-sport. I got a good deal from local forum. Here is my car:

Can I get a link to the hood and bumper? I can't seem to find it on their site.

Sorry for the resurrected thread.

Hey! Unfortunately, they discontinued the sale of the kit.

However, JGMODS has the conversion kit for pre-lci. Check out this link:

Good luck and LMK what you decide to do.

Other alternative is to go OEM, especially if the shipping costs are prohibitive.

Here is another shot of my lci conversion:
