Category:

The definitive front bumper for the E30 M3 Sport Evolution (Evolution III), the rarest and most powerful homologation stage of the E30 M3. Limited to only 600 units, this bumper is distinguished from the standard M3 and Evo II by its enlarged air intake apertures and specialized cooling duct integration. It serves as the mounting platform for the iconic multi-position adjustable front splitter, allowing for aerodynamic tuning between “Normal,” “Monza,” and “Nürburgring” downforce settings.

Key Components:

  • Bumper Skin: Lightweight composite construction with enlarged frontal openings for increased airflow.

  • Brake Cooling Ducts: Specific air intakes that replace the front fog lights to provide direct cooling to the front braking system.

  • Adjustable Splitter (Blade): The “Evo 3” sliding lip that can be extended forward to increase front-axle downforce.

  • Under-tray Interface: Reinforced mounting points for the specialized Sport Evolution aerodynamic belly pan.

  • Gaskets & Seals: Includes the thin rubber piping required for a seamless fit against the flared M3 front fenders.

Specifications:

  • Model Compatibility: BMW E30 M3 Sport Evolution (2.5L). Retrofittable to standard M3 E30 (requires Sport Evo undertray for functional splitter adjustment).

  • Material: OEM-grade high-impact composite / Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP).

  • Adjustment Range: 3-position longitudinal sliding mechanism.

  • Finish: Primed (Historically offered in Gloss Black or Brilliant Red from the factory).

  • Part Number Ref: 51112233041 (Associated undertray/splitter system).

Features:

  • Motorsport Heritage: Designed specifically for Group A touring car homologation to provide a competitive edge in DTM racing.

  • Functional Aerodynamics: The only E30 bumper designed for a factory-adjustable front splitter, significantly reducing high-speed understeer.

  • Thermal Management: Fog light deletion in favor of high-velocity ducts ensures brake performance remains consistent under extreme track temperatures.

  • Authentic Wide-Body Fit: Engineered exclusively for the widened “M” fenders, ensuring perfect panel gaps and a period-correct silhouette.
