Hartge Front Lip

Ok fellas.. So I was considering getting a M3 replica bumper with the lip from my 325xi but couldn't find any that had the opening for the headlight washer jets.. I figured I'll save some $$ and invest in a Front Lip instead..

Doing some research, I came across the Hartge front lip that looks pretty sharp.. Nothing crazy and clean... When I was looking at pictures and looked at what I had now, I noticed that the bumper I got on my 325xi was all one piece and it didn't look like I could fit the front lip on...

Do that Hartge Lips not fit on a stock 06 325xi? It wouldnt fit my bottom bumper I dont think cause it's all one piece and the bottom doesnt separate out like it does on the picture of this car on this ebay listing..

What are my other options?? Am I shit outta luck??

Mine fit with little modification. Just had to remove finisher rods to install lip, shave down the inboard side of the outboard rods, then reinstall the rods. I loved the look just because I saw so few others with the same look (even though I'm switching to an mtech with a studie rep now). Pm me if you have any other questions.

That looks hella clean! They did some nice work... I really like that Hartge Lip and will ask my body shop guy what that'll run me.. Thanks for the input!
