M4 front and rear bumper on e92 328

What's everyone's thoughts on the look of these parts on a e90/e92 chassis? The front and rear bumper on the f82 m4 are my favorite of any m car and the e92 is my favorite chassis. Think it could be a cool look. Obviously no fake m badging or any other "replica" parts, just want a more aggressive look, plus my current front bumper has a big crack.

I am not a fan, front is too busy and looks like it could be damaged from some angled.. Rear I don't know why looks like a fat man wearing short shorts...

I've seen them in person and the bumpers look weird and out of place. Not trying to offend, but it's an easy way to be labeled a ricer. Just an opinion though, take it with a grain of salt.

I love the m4, dont see this anywhere so it would be different. I say if you like the look go for it. Who cares what anyone else says. Given the fitment may be questionable.. so you also have to consider this as a gamble of an investment

I agree it would be a unique look, one of the reasons I like it. The bumpers I've been looking at are retrofitted for the e92 so they should be a near perfect fit. And if they're not a perfect it's only 600 for both the front and rear combined, not much too lose.

I don't care for those on an E92 but prefer the M Sport bumpers.

If you like it you like it, man, it’s all good.

But you did post asking for opinions.

Putting these on your car does not make it an m4. You cant even really say it makes it look like an m4 - my opinion. And, anyone can say that the m4 is hideous - that’s the beauty of opinions.

I totally agree man, I wasn't bashing his opinion just wondering whether he disliked the bumpers or my idea,(because they'd obviously look good on a real m4). And of course I'm not trying to make my 328 come off as an m4, I love my reliable 328. my car is badged as a 328 and will stay that way regardless of the bumpers lol

A. Do it if you like it.

B. Since you asked, it's been done and I think it looks like shit. Does not suit the E92 chassis whatsoever. I'm also one that thinks the E9x M3 bumpers don't look all that great and I don't consider them an "upgrade". I think the MSport bumpers look best.

It looks like gravity distorted its face. Like the plastic was still hot when they put the bumper on and it all slid downward. Certain bits hanging off where they shouldn’t and there is a lot going on there.

Yeah I guess I’m just finding it hard on my eyes since there two different styling languages. The longer horizontal features of the 4 series don’t work as well transplanted to another chassis. I guess I can’t get past that

There is a lot going on in the M4 bumpers, the M Sport is clean and has nice angles.
