These should work - I used them on my M performance aero front lip for the F30, but looking at the pics of the lip you have, it should be the same for your F32.

They're pretty cheap - your local dealership should carry them or you can get them online for about the same price.

They are better than standard pop rivets as the pins are removable and re-useable with a pair of needle nose pliers. But if you don't care to remove them once your lip is set/installed ... and care more that they are extra secure, then standard expanding pop rivets are your best bet (I got mine from harbor freight - comes with the install tool too).
