You'll make the right choice! These add-ons are so extremely based on own personal preference. The one promise I made was to make sure I went with a reputable company with a solid track record. They - Sterckenn - was one of those.

The only one you can see on their site is the pre-LCI. They're one of the manufacturers I contacted and said they didn't even have a timetable for the LCI engineering…so who knows how long that'll take. My suspicion is that it would be very similar to the pre-LCI. The site they have is difficult to pull up photos at times.

I’ve had decent luck with this Chinese Alibaba seller with the F80. They are pretty well known in the aftermarket CF world (JC sportline).

Anyway I saw they released a M performance style lci lip so I decided to try my luck- was about $500 shipped and received it in 2 weeks.

Fitment is pretty much perfect with no gaps (there was a slight gap between the middle piece and 2 side pieces but this is really due to human install error). I think it also looks more aggressive than the oem m performance as it sticks out further.

Can post up some pics later. I figured I would take the chance as their parts have had good feedback and I didn’t want to pay $2700 for a part that would likely scrape anyway.

Edit: added some pictures (excuse the tape and open hood, am doing some work on the car with the battery unplugged haha)

if it gets taken down you can just search aliexpress or alibaba for "m5 lci lip" and it should come up (brand is JC sportline)

I have had good experiences with this particular aliexpress brand, and they are the only one with a LCI lip that is m performance style. I actually like theirs more too as it is slightly more aggressive and sticks out a bit further than oem.

I know buying on there can be quite hit or miss and I am not vouching for aliexpress in general (have heard horror stories). Just speaking from my own experience on this particular item.
But, if they are using the same exact mold then there shouldn't be a huge variation between each set.

If you follow me around the streets of pittsburgh you can rebuild one for yourself since mine is slowly but surely getting destroyed. My Z06 corvette barely scrapes but this thing is another story. When it self destructs I wont put any replacement on. every time it scrapes my internal calculator dings about $25
