Calypso-- are you saying that your dealer has confirmed that there is an '08 kit available in the US? Do you have details or--even better-- pictures? Is there a catalog available from BMW like there was for the '07? My dealer says the '08 M Kit isn't out yet and that BMW plans to wait (his estimate was 3 to 6 months).

EDIT: also, Calypso, I'd be concerned with your dealer and what they are telling you. Do I recall correctly that your dealer also told you at one point that they were painting the '07 kit for your car? Did they not think to see if it fits first? My dealer would not put the '07 kit on my car, not because it wouldn't fit (which we now know it won't) but because the cost of the dealer installing the kit is over double the cost of having the VPC install the kit. Maybe your dealer ran into the same cost problem? All I'm saying is that I'd be a little skeptical with them. I haven't been able to confirm the existence of the '08 kit for US cars so I'd like to see what they tell you they have. Enjoy the 335i!

Yes, they did paint it before attempting installation.

D'oh!!

Let me know when you hear something.

PS Why can't they just order you a front bumper from an '08 550i with ZSP?

Because there is probably fitment and spacing differences due to the front mounted intercooler on the 535i.

Gotcha. So then I guess it would fit the 528i??
