Is that lip designed for the OEM M5 front fender? If it is, you will have fitment issues. The M5 style aftermarket has different dimensions from OEM.

Yes it is. Well I'm going to purchase the lip regardless so now I guess I'll have to wait until it can be test fitted or I find a good deal on an OEM bumper.

well now, i being an injection molder by trade, with a vast knowledge of all different types of co polymers would shy away from a ploy prop bumper, i do not think it will hold its shape after being exposed to a multitude of elements...
