Question Help: F30 Front Bumper Lip

I'm looking for a Front Bumper Lip for my 340i M Sport. It's the thin blade looking piece, not the M Performance Lip Kit. Attached a photo from Google of what i'm looking for.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm pretty sure that this actually is the M Performance Lip Kit with part of it painted to match the car color. You can even see from the picture you attached that the fit is off. You can find a lot of these unpainted on eBay, and some that are fully painted black.

To get that particular look, you'll probably have to buy the unpainted bumper lip, and then get the different sections painted and then most likely professionally installed. To install it yourself, there is a pretty good post explaining the process: http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1126851

Thanks for the reply. This was the only close shot I could find on Google. The top part does look painted to match the car. I checked Ebay & Amazon for the Lip part but couldn't find anything similar to this. Do you know if the M Performance Lip is attached to the top and bottom part of the lip? or do they come in 2 pieces part?

Thanks again.

The lip comes in 2 pieces - the lip/splitter assembly and the adaptor/bracket. Here is the one that most people pick up from Ebay

Thanks squidlyboy

That's the one I'm currently looking at actually. Heard Selma's fitments are pretty close to OEM.

it's the M-Sport Front Diffuser, mine came from the factory black but I also looked at a color matched one.

Hadn't had the car for a week yet and hit a raccoon... pulled the lip off of my front bumper and cracked the bumper.

Luckily, the raccoon didn't make it.

But those diffusers look good no for sureeeee
