Yep, someone has already made the swap in fact. The problem is that M-cars don't have fogs, so you'll lose those.

I got mine from my dealer where I got my 08 Z4.

BMW CCA members get 20% off parts and for Saturdays they have 25% off.
So I ordered my aero bumper on Tuesday and picked it up on Sat.

Today, I ordered my aero side skirts for pick up this coming sat.

Not really a problem for me. I say if someone is committed to swapping the front bumper go with the M. IMO M>Aero bumper.

I second the M, if I didn't already have the aero. The M looks more aggresive.

I liked the M bumper until I found out I will lose the fog lights I paid for as stock items on my Z.

Fine...the bumpers and hoods are all the same for the current "facelifted" Z4s...thanks for pointing that out

I don't know what year the facelift happened...03-04 maybe

Dammitt wasn't talking about aftermarket parts. The OEM bumpers are interchangeable - M, Aero, facelift, you name it. The Hamann lip was designed for the 2003-2005 standard bumper, so that's all it fits.
