Can anyone recommend M4 front bumper for F36?

I was looking at this M4 bumper for my F36

https://www.ebay.com/i/254253747250?...EaArZ-EALw_wcB

It says made it Taiwan. Does anyone know if the fitment is good?

Any other recommendations for something similar? I found some places that charge almost $200 for shipping alone so this seems like a solid deal.

Edit: looks like other sellers are saying that some work and prep “might” be needed in order to have a perfect fitment since this is obviously not an OEM product.

Considering everyone has different tolerances, I've seen crap posted people think looks great....so no idea how I would expect anyone to answer the question in a way that will sync up with your expectations.

Likewise, even the OEM Bumpers can lineup badly if one doesn't take it to someone (or personally knows) how to take the time to adjust the pieces to make them fit correctly.

They do not magically fit correctly because they are OEM.

Then again, most aftermarkets are making them fit as well as possible by adjusting, well, everything.

What kind of front bumper lip spoiler/splitter do you have on your car? It looks great in that pic!

If talking the profile pic, it's because it's a BMW M3.
