e90 Pre-LCI Front bumper solutions?

Hello,

I have a 08 335xi and, as much as I love it.. the front bumper doesn't impress me and looks pretty tamed.

I am looking for a good alternative whether that is a whole new front bumper that can be painted or.. 'kit' that can make it a bit more aggressive.

My budget for this is about 500-750.

All suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,
Derek

The following is what I've found so far that i'd like but, was curious if you guys had any other options for opinions


M3 Style:

Front Lip: (Wouldn't mind due to saving money = more money towards GC's)

The front lip you posted is for E92 not E90.

I personally like the E90 M Sport bumpers out of all the M E9X bumpers.

Options are fairly limited I think:
1) OEM bumper you have now
1a) add splitters (makes a huge difference for little money - you can trust ebay vendor emotors2000)

2) Mtech bumper (or replica Mtech to save costs - check reviews first)
2a) there are a few different lips / splitters you can use with this for an even more aggressive/unique look

3) M3 replica (OEM M3 won't fit)
3a) there are a few lips / splitters you can use with this too, though harder to find those that fit the replica M3 bumper (compared to OEM)

I'm actually having an M3 Replica Front Bumper w/fog deletes(as well as rear bumper and rocker panels) installed while I'm away on vacation. Hopefully it turns out the way I'd envisioned it, but only time will tell. From my understanding they're a good fit and look great. It should be all done by the end of this week.
