One of the things i think that will change with the E90 LCI is the fog lamps. Right now they are angled inward towards the center of the car instead of outward to flow with the contour of the bumper. But it doesn't surprise me that they are already working on the LCI changes. The car itself has probably been on the drawing boards at least 6 years
True, fog lamps are suppose to give you a "curtain" or light underneath the fog so you could see.

Yeah, but that article is saying that the E90 will see a facelift/LCI within the year or two. Damn that is fast!

Yeah, I remember reading something about BMW development cycles, and you are about right, car was probably designed over 6 years ago, and usually before the introduction of the facelift they are working on the next generation already.
