X5 M sport lip, is there any????

Hey guys, new member here, and just got me a brand new 2013 space grey X5 M sport. Been lookin for a carbon fiber lip, or any lip for that matter for a M sport bumper.. Try googling it, nothing pop up.. Maybe you guys know more then I do.

Nope! That's why I did the X5M front bumper conversion. There is nothing for the M-Sport X5's out there.

Well that sucks.. I was thinking maybe get a carbon fiber lip for the M, and get some shop to modify it for the M sport..

The front bumpers are shaped completely different. It won't work bro. And even if they fiberglassed the hell out of the lip and messed with the integrity, that would be $1800 down the drain PLUS whatever they charged to build you a new lip (..all while ruining the beautiful piece that the Vorsteiner is). If you're going to spend $1800 just to ruin a VS lip, you might as well do what I did and perform the retrofit. That's about what it cost me to perform the upgrade.

Thanks for the info bro.. Just checked out your tread, that's a bit of modding, major props. Hopefully some company comes out with something for the M sport, cause quite a few have them.

I wouldn't hold my breath. The E70 is being phased out and M Sports have been around awhile now. If it were going to happen, it would already be on the market. Do the retro!

Agree on that..there isn't alot of additional styling options for these cars besides factory OEM and possibly 1 or 2 others out there...if they were to be done they would be on the market already considering how long it has been on the market
