Remember that since the E90 M3, M3 variants have been using the 3/4 Coupe's grills instead of the sedan. The 4 series has already been spied w/ vertical grills as well, so likely it will share similarities w/ that. Even if that isn't the case, its pretty clear, even in camouflage, that the car will in fact have different, tall, and large kidneys that do not look like the regular G20, the horizontal rather than vertical slats also emphasize this.
