This is what I'm trying to get. Contacted person who did that lip for non M-Sport bumper - it's custom made, but looks interesting and at least i'll be the only one rocking it in US

To be honest I like it even more than M-Sport. I'll change trim to black of course and then it should look just right imho

He also has this kind of fender flares (kinda like wide body): https://www.drive2.ru/l/472283401034924644/

It's in Russian, but you can check the pics

Looks great, ( looks similar to Kelleners F15 kit). It will even look more aggressive with blackout T trims

Anyone seen that front aero lip in matte black? I can't even find a picture anywhere - was wondering to see how it looks in black. Maybe wrapped in CF will look better than painted to match body - not sure?

I posted in another thread, but i'll double post here too. I only test fitted front lip so far, without painting, just left it black at this point. It's OEM BMW so fitment wise it was ideal, no issues and very easy to install. In person it looks a lot better

Looks great man! Like the shark fins up front too! Where did you end up purchasing the front lip from? And was it really bolt on?

Thanks!

I purchased it here: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...n/51192364672/

Installation is a bolt on, but stock part (lower portion of bumper cover) has to come off as this Aero lip installs instead of stock one (2 parking sensors are transferred to a new Aero lip). There's no modification required whatsoever - it's full OEM - just several bolts and rivets. All rivets are included, so installation took me 2 hours (mostly trying to find comfortable position on the ground to turn bolts). If I had hoist it would probably take 1 hour (local BMW shop quoted me 2 hour of labor, but they were busy and i did it myself as I was very impatient)

Probably later I'll order the rest of the kit - rear diffuser with flaps

Looks very good. Does appear in photos that for a good colour match (either black or white) will have to paint it.

This looks really good. Might consider this over getting the m-sport front bumper. Curious, what are you going to do for the rear? M-sport bumper?

I'm thinking to go with Aero rear diffuser and flaps (it comes to about $1k - which is still cheaper than a M Sport diffuser) - just to keep it same style and since it's oem too. I'll post it when I'll be done, but it will take some time, because I need to sell my stock wheels first to get money for that rear diffuser lol

You are right, they are just different, it's really depend on your preference. However, personally I don't like Msport because : It's not the real M, I have seen way more Msport down here in SoCal, more than any other models and last, it looks plain to me ( it would be different story for Msport with AeroDynamic package). Again It is just my thought, not to offend anyone

I decided to add an aggressive roof spoiler, custom made for our x5, should arrive mid January. Stock one is way to subtle - it's almost not noticeable if you ask me. Will post when it arrives

Could you send me a link or a picture of the spoiler you're talking about. I've looked for a few and not crazy about anything I've seen so far.
