Where can I get a front lip spoiler for my m5 front bumper, I love the look but would like it a little lower. I've done some searching but havn't seen where to get one. Like the one on whoevers grey m5 with the black csl wheels has? That car looks beautiful.

That M-Tech lip is made to be fitted on the standard e34 bumper. Its an add-on, the M5 bumper is a full bumper. I think he's like for a lower lip to attach to the bottom of his existing bumper. I have the e36 GT splitters on my car and i like em, but i have alot of mixed reviews. I saw another lip example on an M5 i thought looked ok, but i only have one picture of it.

in that case he's looking for the top item I suggested earlier
basically a lip that attaches to a non-M5 bumper to make it one

Your right jessejames, the one you brought up would be the one for him, i thought he was talking about getting an M5 bumper and putting a lip on it, so it would look like S14's M5

Apparently its the rieger splitter for the e36 m3 correct? I know there was a group buy not long ago but that seems to be over, wheres the best place to get one now?

Correct, S14's car has the Rieger e36 M3 front lip. As for places to get them, I'm sure that Mel Abrahm's could help you out or, you could jump into the e36 forums and see what that group has to say.
