Nope, because I completely spaced it out. I'll snap a few for you when I'm done with work and get them posted tonight or tomorrow morning. My bad.

Looks great man! Just what I was looking for. The one I got off of ebay, I know you get what you pay for, but the underside was completely hallowed out and had a cheap lip to the lip. Hard to explain without showing a picture of it. I already sent it back and should have taken a quick picture!
Appreciate the pictures! I can't remember if I already asked but does the front lip you have utilize the OEM holes? I don't want to put additional holes in my bumper.

You did ask, haha. And no, it doesn't. I drilled into the bottom of the bumper because it's the bottom of the bumper. Nobody will ever see it!

Looking forward to the exhaust pics and video! Do you have a downpipe you will pair the exhaust up with? Great build so far!

Yep, purchased direct from AA. Stock downpipe, which is actually what the non-resonated version of the AWE exhaust it meant to pair with (they do have an adapter should I ever decide to go with an aftermarket downpipe...but we'll cross that bridge when we get there). Thanks for the kind words, man!

eforty6_m3 Are you able to take a picture of the front end about 10-20ft away please? About to pull the trigger on the lip but would like to see how it looks from a distance first.
Also, have you had the chance to get the AWE exhaust installed? Thanks!

I'm at work right now, so the next best thing I can do is send you a bunch of photos that I think would help you (most are from my first M340i, not my current one, but same car/same lip). As for the exhaust, not yet, unfortunately. I'm at the mercy of my buddies schedule. We are shooting for this Sunday, fingers crossed. Hope these helped!

Wow! Looks great man!
Haha! I will send some monies over to you! I am debating between the one you have or this one from Suveener. I like how flat the one you have looks and it might be best for how my driveway is sloped, but the one from Suveener brings a different look that is seriously growing on me and I love how aggressive it looks.

This might make your decision easier, unless you're willing to wait. But looks like the Suveener lip is OOS: Let us know which direction you ultimately go in.

I am also looking for rear bumper splitters too I think it will tie in the car perfectly. Can't wait to hear some exhaust clips. I am on the fence to buy the MPE or AWE. But I love the valve option on the MPE. Quiet mode and party mode.

How is your car' cold start up? Pretty loud. Only reason I truly need a valved exhaust..hence me leaning towards the MPE. My master bedroom is very close to the garage and I don't want to wake my wife and super anxious / yaps at everything dog in the mornings when I leave for work around 630am. Wow, that does look very clean to be honest! Subtle and not in your face. Are you lowered? Love the mirror caps, where did you get those? Thanks for the pictures to help make my decision harder! lol

Cold start w/MPE = 6 Cold start w/MPE + AA DP = 8 I know how loud an exhaust is subjective, but by no means is the MPE a quiet cold start. The only way to probably reduce the noise would be a cold start delete. At that time during photos, I was lowered on dinan springs. CF Mirror caps are from Autotecknic.
