I am looking to add a front lip to my stock front bumper (2008 535i). Has anyone installed this on their car? If so, please provide pics! It's $145 on ebay with free shipping.

Here's the ebay link to it: http://www.ebay.com/itm/180840760998...ht_2710wt_1014




Let me know what you guys think.. it's either going to be this lip or M5 style front bumper. Thanks!

I agree, that lip is actually pretty clean kinda looks
like it has an integrated bottom diffuser.

Go with that one and lets see some install pics!
