Fitment of 1M fenders on BMW 128i

I currently have the 1m bumper on my car with the old fenders, (https://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-1M-STYL...-/272849035470) fitment is great with the current stock fenders. I was hoping to add the 1m front fenders as well, but don't know how well the fitment will be.

I noticed from this video that this person installed the 1M fenders on the stock 135i bumper, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SF_Jn1354Js. In theory, they should fit and still give me that bit of flare.

If anyone has experience with the 1M conversion that could give me some insight, I would much appreciate it.

Those aren't OEM fenders they're installing. Just like your rep bumper, these are rep fenders. It's all made for people that want the 1M look without widebody. It's not actually a 1M conversion.

Having said that, plenty of people do the rep fenders as well since they do look better and you get a small amount of inner clearance at the top. But you're getting 10MM versus the 45MM the real 1M conversion gets.
