When Ralph has his bumper off the e90 M3, I'll have him take a measurement and I'll take the same measurement on the 135i.
I overlayed the two images using the mounting holes which are the same between the two. I was at the shop yesterday and they confirmed they are not interchangeable as the M3 bar, as my come suggested, has the support bars closer together than the 135i one. And as you mentioned, the tow hook certainly wouldnt line up.
