M3 rep lip for E92 - quality?

Soo.... I've finally found a lip for the m3 rep bumper, but have no idea how the fitment/quality is.

I read somewhere that it looks better in person than in photos...

This is the first M3 rep lip that I've seen for E92, but I'm not digging it from the photos. Does anyone have this lip installed w/ pics?

The pix sort of looks chopped...the car looks to be a real m3 with modified rep m3 front bumper? U might want to call or email him if it exist before ordering.

It's funny because the picture is a "real" M3 well at least it has the widened fenders,etc.

But then it says it fits "M3 style front bumper"

M3 style front bumper = OEM M3 bumper fitment or M3 Rep?

hmmmmm

The front lip is for the m3 style front bumper. The oem m3 front bumper does not have the fog lights

I just installed that a couple weeks ago. It looks pretty sweet. It's basically fiberglass with carbon fiber overlay. The fitment wasn't the best. On the passenger side it was about half a inch shorter then the drivers side. I unfortunately only have a pic of it from the front. Had to take it off because the body shop put it on before putting on the rep M3 bumper and it totally stiffened up the bumper to the point where it would not line up Planning on putting it back on next week.

I'll be putting it on early next week. I'll email you pics if you want. It personally bothered me to have that much of a difference but already purchased it might as well use it.
