BMW M3 E36 Front Splitter — 1992–1999 Gloss Black
Give your E36 M3 a sharper, lower front end. This front splitter is shaped for the factory front bumper of the BMW M3 E36 (1992–1999) in Coupe, Saloon and Convertible form, extending the lower edge for a lower, more purposeful stance while taking the first knocks from kerbs and speed bumps instead of the bumper. Moulded from UV-stable ABS in a deep gloss black finish, it follows the bumper's original contour for a clean, period-correct look.

Installation
The splitter mounts to the lower edge of the front bumper using the supplied screw kit. Mounting holes are drilled into the bumper at the marked points — no cutting or trimming of the bumper is needed.
- Dry-fit the splitter and check alignment along the full bumper edge.
- Mark the mounting points using the splitter as a guide.
- Drill the marked points and secure with the supplied screws, working from the centre outwards.
Basic hand tools and a drill are needed (approx. 45–60 min). On older bumpers, check the lower edge for damage before fitting. Professional installation is recommended if unsure.
FAQ
Does it fit a standard E36 3 Series?
No. It is shaped for the M3 front bumper. A standard E36 bumper has a different lower section.
Does it fit the E36 Compact?
No. The Compact uses its own front bumper.
Is drilling required?
Yes. The splitter is screw-fitted: holes are drilled into the bumper at the marked points using the supplied kit.
Is it road legal in the UK?
Yes, when securely fitted and not obstructing lights or the number plate. Tell your insurer about any modification.
