Question Will M3 side skirts fit E92?

has anyone tried it out?

M3 fender panels are different than E92, but the doors are the same... so maybe it will work?

thanks!

They should fit, since I'd assume the mounting points are all the same.
The only issue, is that probably won't line up with the wheel arches on the fender and quarter panel (since the M3 has more flared wheel wells).

i'm not sure if it will... since the M3 has wider fender flares (front & back) than the regular E92; so I think the side skirts are flared out at each end as well.

I think it would work, because the M3 flares out towards the top of the wheel arch. even if the the M3 flares down near where the side skirts attach, the OEM skirts are so flexible, it would be no problem to tuck them back in, the 1/4 inch that they might be sticking out.

I wonder how the m3 sides would look with the m-tech kit? Seems like the sides would be slightly more aggressive than the m-tech front and rear.

M3 sides would greatly increase the width of regular e92 compared to the M-techs

after looking at some pix closely, the ends of the side skirt does seem to flare out more...

E92KITS please develop this!! the two lines make the side skirt look so much narrower and "keeps everything in control"...

oh wow! why didnt I think of that!???? Let me just go over to my vault and pull out an extra $30 grand and get that M3 ive been wanting!! Use a little common sense with things like this, why does anyone buy replica parts like wheels, kits etc? Because the majority of the population cant afford shelling out several thousand dollars extra for these parts, but that does not mean we dont like how they look, and lust after these things like you people do that have better paying jobs and more money
