Need Help: Identify This Rear Bumper Please...

GreenPlease · 04-22-2010, 10:14 PM

Also posted this thread up in the Cosmetic modifications forum.

I was in a fender bender 6 months ago, finally got around to ordering parts about a week ago. Went to the body shop today and they showed me this bumper. Doesn't look anything like the stock coupe bumper I ordered. Won't fit my coupe. I think it's an mtech rear for the sedan.

Could you guys chime in? Thanks. Sorry in advance for the crappy photo.

Edit: Here's the RealOEM link to the part I ordered- http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...=51&fg=15&hl=3

m-tech

Sedan or coupe? It doesn't come close to fitting my coupe but I'm curious to see if you guys can verify it's for the sedan just by looking at the lines. Thanks btw.

e92 mtech

Consensus seems to be e92. Bump for a little more feedback. Shop said it didn't fit but I don't exactly have a lot of confidence in them (have more confidence in you guys).

Thanks again.

Edit: after looking at pictures of the mtech bumper on Vorsteiner's website, I'm starting to think it's also for an e92. Now do I return it or do I have my shop mount it? I'm not exactly a big fan of the mtech bumper....

return it, that's for the sedan.

The coupe has the tow cover closer to the curve and extended towards the edge of the diffuser.

Bump for a little more input. 2 now say it's for the sedan. Thanks again guys.

Sedan LCI. heres my lci mtech on pre lci

Thank you so much! Mr.335iCoupe and modtheebmw hit the nail on the head. Now hopefully I can return it (should be able to, not even close to what I ordered

Edit: the supplier isn't taking it back since it's painted and the body shop won't pay for a new bumper because they say it's not their fault they got the wrong bumper

Edit: the supplier actually came through big time for me and they are taking it back. The bumper is now for sale through Evan@Tischer. He came through BIG TIME for me. THANKS EVAN! Top notch customer service.
