That's what I thought but couldn't find them for my car online... Thanks for the confirmation. Back to searching for these I go

For what it is worth, I have never seen anything like that for the G30. You may be able to find some generic ones but there would be no way to tell if the curve is spot on.

Found some on Amazon. The trick in searching is to leave off the bmw from the search and write

Exterior Front Bumper Lip Splitter Fins Spoiler Canards

Personally not a fan, they don't look like they belong on a G30 but then again, it's your car and if you like them, I fully support individuality!
