LCI Performance Splitter Fitted To Pre LCI M Sport Car

Sheepy · 08-01-2013, 10:04 AM

I fitted an LCI performance Carbon fibre splitter to my Pre LCI Msport the other day & I thought I would post up here as a reference point for anyone else wishing to do this.
I had been looking for a full length Msport splitter for ages but as most of you guys are probably aware there are not many options out there, certainly not that look good & at my budget of £200. Anyway I came across the Genuine BMW performance splitter on eBay brand new for £200 on a one off sale through a BMW dealer & purchased it straight away, I had heard it would not fit Pre LCI cars on here but thought if it wouldn't fit I would just sell it on for say £300 & make a little profit, they sell for £485+VAT at the dealers which is a total rip off!
All that needs to be done to get it to fit Pre LCI cars is fit a 5mm rubber packer to both end brackets of the splitter.

I used the fitting guide below which shows it fitted to an LCI bumper, the only real difference that I can see is that fitted onto the Pre LCI bumper the splitter in not quite the same profile as the bumper so slightly sits out in the middle, I actually prefer this as you can see the splitter a little easier.

Well done for doing this. I have wanted one for my motor, but was a lot of £££ if it didn't fit. I'm now looking again. :-)

Looks great, subtle and oem.

That looks good, such an easy fix to get it to fit also, starting to love the carbon fibre look, may start adding more. :-)

I like this... but all the pictures are of an LCI splitter on an LCI?

Am I missing something here? are the pics not of it on your car?

EDIT: It does however look lovely! I am very keen to see what it looks like on a pre-lci front!

awesome work mate!

lovely addition to the front end! big fan of CF mods

It's a round £600 from a dealer, wait to they come up cheaper.

Sheepy · 08-02-2013, 08:03 AM

The grey Pre LCI car in the pics is mine to clear up any confusion, the only LCI car is the blue one in the fitting link I posted at the bottom of the thread. Part numbers for the splitter & fixings are also in the fitting guide which is why I didn't post them.
The splitter can be purchased from BMW's eBay store for £580 but as I mentioned earlier, this is a total rip off.

BoondogUK · 08-02-2013, 08:52 AM

Sorry.. missed that you had an e92... was looking for the pre lci front circa an e90!

rialnet · 08-02-2013, 09:06 AM

i can only see the part no. for the fittings - not the splitter?

rialnet · 08-02-2013, 09:10 AM

got it - cheers!

I'd love to get hold of one of these. I also have a pre-LCI M Sport Coupe.

Digitalize · 03-15-2014, 08:54 AM

Sorry this is before I realised there was any changes to the coupe shape.

I still fail to see the differences however.

AWBimmer · 03-15-2014, 08:58 AM

Lovely touch matey!

Reece · 03-15-2014, 11:01 AM
