In my opinion, the F90 M5 bumper doesn't look that great on the F10 chassis because it doesn't match the headlights. F90 headlights are hexagonal + the grill is wider (JUST LIKE THE HEADLIGHTS!) The F10 headlights are mostly round (unless you have the lighting package, then it's flat at top with the eyebrow blinkers instead of side blinkers). Also just like the front bottom middle grill!

I'm considering changing my front to a white F10 M5 bumper. Took a look at the F90 and it just doesn't seem to match. The M4/M3 front bumper looks better than the F90 IMO, but a bit too busy for the F10. The F10 style is more of a cruiser with simpler, clean lines. The M5 F10 front bumper is aggressive but only subtly so, whereas the M4/M3 screams it. I like the subtle aggressive look.

Two attached images from someone selling their 2011 535 with the F90 bumper (not my car).
