Will keep you guys updated asap. Since we've spend the last few months working on getting the fitment spot on for both E92.93 and E90. Right now we only had it installed on E90.

I assure you guys will get our front lip at a more resonable price in terms of design and fitment. That's what our company goal is .

Id imagine if it fits an e90 it would fit e92 and e93 perfectly as well, right? They are the same bumper after all.

I can assure you fitment is a big issue with this lip. That's my brothers SG e90 and needs a body shop to install it for him. Need to work on fitment before releasing this lip to the public. The lip looks good though.

The lip was offered to your brother's via Chris@Mfest as i was looking for a test fitting demo car. It's stated as a demo front lip for test fitting so it's not the final version we release. We need to know how it fit on a real car.

The front lip has not been offically released. Only a few tester unit has been made and sent out for fitting reason and i'm sure the final version will be great ^^ Dont worry.

The Challenge for E9X M3 was inspired by the GTS original concept. Our was designed from scratch to have cues from the GTS but a more aggressive design, and one that also functioned to block air from the front of the tires and extend to the edge of the bumper for the best Air dam function.

We did not make the one in the pics Ralf posted. We decided to not replicate other peoples parts. Some of the places we work with do work with BMW Motorsports, so it would not have been wise move. We have our own, better solution in the works Modular design thats more flexible to different users and easier to repair/replace if damage occurs to certain parts.

Sorry, I read that as your lip.

Either way...if you bring a lip to market that integrates some brake ducts and looks half decent, I'm all for it.

Currently, the only reason why I haven't pulled the trigger on the Challenge lip. I'll give it another 6 months to see what's out on the market.

Checkcaptain:

Do you by chance have downforce numbers for the BMW diffuser?
If not do you mind providing the length of the lip as it extends away from the bumper (Y axis) ?
Thanks!
