Lci Front Conversion Finally Finished

lemans 330d · 09-04-2011, 10:59 AM

I have finally done the lci conversion as my front end had stonechips anyway so i thought may aswell go the whole hog.
Well worth the time and money and looks so much nicer from in the cab with the lump down the middle of the bonnet.
The front bumper looks meaty and the angel eyes are a nice white.

Very nice indeed.If you don't mind me asking,how much did it set you back,all in and was it quite a straight forward bolt-on mod?

it cost me £1000 which was
£250 painting of the bonnet and bumper inc fitting
£200 bonnet
£100 bumper
£260 headlights
£42 angeleye led`s
£150 new grilles from main dealer along with little items needed.

straight forward apart from sourcing the bits without buying new.

Hello Chris,
That looks great.
I have just sold my E60 M5 and going back to a E90 335DM sport and would like to do the same. Can i ask where you got the parts from and what is required to complete . I take it its , bonnet, front bumper and grill?

Any advice is greatly received.

the bumpers are easily found on ebay but the bonnets are hard to come by and then it is getting them delivered as nobody posts them.i was lucky i have a mate who has a haulage company so a contact picked it for me as it was in totenham.
the grilles and foglight adaptors i bought from main dealers along with new nuts,bolts and clips but again my mate is the parts manager so discount was given,then it was to be painted and luckily again my mate works for one of our regions top bodyshops as a painter so friends discount given in closing time.

hope this helps but by all means would be happy to discuss further.
