The 2-series front looks amazing, but the car on right really doesn't. It's too flat between the lights and the grill. The regular M-Sport front looks much better.

It looks very nice. However I hope the real LCI gets a different identity instead of stealing from the 2-series.......

Looks like a slightly modified stock bumper with a Performance insert. Maybe they tried to make it look more like the M235i bumper.

That is some good work done then. I feel bmw cheapened out on the rear of the car made it too tamed compared to the a45/s3/mk7 r.

I kind of like the tame version, but they could have offered a more extreme version as an aftermarket styling kit. Maybe as the Performance bumper?

Looks great from most angles, but I feel like the 2 Series front end makes the nose of that car look disproportionately long. LOVE those seats!

Shame it's an auto too :/

That looks perfect, nicely done! Did the hood have to be modified at all or does it already line up with the 2 series lights?
