Hamann style front lip on LCI?
I really like the Hamann style front lip/splitter, but it seem every time I find one at a good price, it is for the pre LCI...I have heard they will fit the LCI, but am curious if any modifications are involved. If you have done it, please post and let me know what you had to do...drill different mounting holes or something else? Thanks in advance

That's what I'm planning to get for my '11 E91. Most the ones I've seen aren't pre-drilled, so you just line it up how you want, clamp it on, drill your holes, and bolt it up. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

Not sure. Can't decide if I should pay JGMods or Mod Bargains $200 for a lip that I'm sure is the EXACT same one guys sell on Ebay for $100...
BTW, here's a pic of that lip on an E90 LCI * Edit, looks like the price on the Ebay ones I was watching have gone up to $200 also. JGMods it is! |

Thanks! I talked to JGMods also...so if the ebay ones have gone up to the same price...it is a no brainer!

I don't think there are any predrilled ones for the LCI version...only pre LCI.

I decided to go a different route. I am going to do CF splitters then a flat Kerscher type lip that will go under the splitters. The splitters are scheduled to arrive today/tomorrow.
Although I like the Hamann style lip, I ended up wanting something a little different.

dont think mod bargain has this.
hmm yah, i cant decide between the splitters and the CF lips, the splitters stick out too much for my liking, and the lips, not enough pictures to tell if i really like them, the painted hamann lips looks a bit weird to me, the lines are just all over the places. CF looks better, maybe just coz u cant see much. |

I got my splitters today and I just held them up to the car and it is going to look really good when I get the Kerscher style lip under it, but will look good without too. Quote:
Do you have a pic? I would love to see. Great minds think alike?!? Looks really good. I was going to go with that setup, but I got run off the road recently and it scraped the bottom of my front bumper just a little. Instead of getting it resrpayed, I bought the splitters to cover the area, then adding the other lip to make it look similar to the Hamann. I was afraid the Hamann wouldn't cover the area I needed covered.

Roll_The_Dice, yah, i know the hamman lips are made for the pre lci, but i really wish there is something like this for LCI. i have '10 as well.
http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2697/4...972f94ed_b.jpg can you take picture after you install the splitters (without the Cf lip) , and then with lips. |

Question....how much is your car lowered?
Quote:
I will take pics after just the splitters...should be next week some time. Maybe this weekend if I have time to put them on. I am finally getting my M tech rear bumper painted early next week. I may just let my paint/body guy install the splitters. My performance spoiler should be here at the end of this week too.

I just need to find the bottom lip at a good price. Everyone is sold out that I have contacted. They won't have them in until the beginning of August, they said. I currently only have carbon fiber in my interior trim. When I am done modding, I will have splitters, front lip, performance spoiler, rear diffuser, and OEM mirror caps. I am putting real carbon fiber on the diffuser and OEM mirror caps right now. They should be done by Monday also...so the transformation will be all at once (minus the front lip). Can't wait!
