PLEASE Look- Carbon Fiber Front Bumper Cover
Have any of you guys seen this on eBay? This is actually a nice piece. It's a slim piece of carbon fiber that basically goes on "inside" the lip of the bottom part of the front bumper. I have seen it on IG on M5s in Moscow and I remember reading a post on it in the forums, but can't recall if anyone ended up ordering. I actually had reached out to the manufacturer in Moscow and they replied, in broken English...BUT quoted me $2,000 for it. Anyway, wanted to share with you in the event you have ordered it from this seller. And if so, did you get the part, was the process easy and was the product to you expectations?

I've seen this part, and seen the cost of it from other people on here. Somebody local bought it for his M8 from that Russian company @carbon.fiber.art on ig. I would not pay 2k for it.
That $500 piece that you linked from eBay, seems to be using pictures stolen from the original @carbon.fiber.art company. Minimal seller feedback, and a lousy description. I would not gamble, too many red flags.... |

I myself don't plan to pay $2500 for a front lip on a daily driver. Unfortunately there aren't a lot of options and I've been hoping a nice replica of the RKP would have hit the scene by now for maybe $1000 at max 😅. In the meantime, I'm preoccupied by wheels and lowering the car for now. |

I learned the hard way that spending a ton on front lips does not make sense as they take a beating. Had an RKP Lip on one of my F10 M5's and it lasted less than 90 days.

agreed. you can get away with a cheap lip and side skirts but my rear spoiler from RW has faded and looks like garbage after a year and I keep it in a garage.

💯 ... front lip and skirts somewhat out of plain sight. I went Mperf for rear diffuser and Mode Carbon for rear spoiler. Happy with both.

That's a bummer to hear as I just added one to mine. Can you take photos or PM me so I can see what it looks like? I guess I'll plan on replacing it if mine ends up doing the same. Thanks!

So far, so good on the side skirts; took a look and all looks fine(I think they've been on the car for about two years).

On the F10 M5 forums their reputation was less than stellar and I recall lots of fitment issues but I read some positive feedback from some F90 guys and decided to give them a try .. probably a crapshoot at best.

Thanks for the photos. That's a huge bummer. I got the side skirts, front lip and spoiler. Fingers crossed they all hold up. Glad to hear your other parts have held up, but sucks that one of the things that is most visible did not.

Hi !
I bought it from that company in Moscow ( Carbon.Fiber.Art ) and it looks so good. Top quality dry carbon, fits perfect. I have a full set on front from that company (without carbon kidney grilles). But the price for me (Europe,Poland) was much more better... |
