will aluminum underbelly cover for M2 work for M235i?

I'm not a fan of the floppy plastic M235i underbelly engine cover.

Does anyone know if the M2 aluminum underbelly fits the M235i? Anyone know a part number? I've searched on realoem but it doesn't seem to list it.

I'm pretty sure it's steel. It weighs 4.5kg.

I'd be surprised if it fitted the standard series subframe, but possibly not impossible as the M235i racing has them fitted. 235iR uses similar steel front subframe to standard series cars.

Why not just fabricate an aluminium sheet panel?

^ This. Any competent shop (or owner) should be able to fab one up in no time at all.

Good idea, I'll look into it. Thanks!
