PreLCI/LCI question. Body shop help..... - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

dlouie87 · 02-02-2013, 07:05 PM

Hello,

I have a 07 e90 and I need a new front bumper. I was wondering how hard is it to go to a LCI mtech front? I know that the hood needs to be replace but everything else fits right?

This person just changed the hood: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=504040

Just asking for opinions because I'm curious and I don't want to start something and find out I need new fenders and headlights as well.

i was going to do the same.. you will need a lci hood, bumper, and grill....

If you have m-tech right now it's a straight swap and just need hood, bumper and grills.

Hmmm...In that case, I'm not sure. I think M-Tech changes a couple of things like the underbody panel and some structural stuff. I'm not sure though! Maybe someone else can chime in that knows for sure.

Maybe the mods can move this to the other forum?

On page 2 post #43, he has a full parts list. Liner and brake ducts should be different though since you have 335i.
