Does it really fit this badly - with all those gaps? surely that is not good for aero?
It's a Photoshop since some wanted to see it in white. The fit is good, look at real pictures.

My bad I thought most of the cars on this were the X3M and not the 2.0/3.0 M-Sport variant?

They are all M40i/d's, which come with M Sport bumpers.

Does anyone know if the Maxton X3 G01 lip will fit the X4 G02? Maxton's website shows a lip for the G02, but it isn't nearly as nice as the one pictured in this thread.

I'm pretty certain the X4 front bumper is identical.

And you're right, that X4 maxton lip is hideous!

Yes, the lip for G02 is ugly. Fortunately the X3 G01 lip fits the X4. I got mine fitted recently with no problem.

Splitter looks really good mate.

Winter wheels also look good do you know the BMW centre caps fit them though?

It does make the grilles look a bit more in proportion to the car as well imo.
