Se to Msport bumpers

gaza01 · 02-21-2014, 08:48 AM

Is this a straight swap with no issues?
I've sourced the fog lights and grilles etc..I'm just asking more about the fitment really.
Cheers

The M Sport rear bumper does use different guides but it will still fit without them.

Where have you got your bumpers from being nosey? I am after a full set for mine but giving up with searching ebay.

i know the rear is a straight swap, did this myself

front isn't a straight swap I believe.. need two parts? someone will confirm though

im interested to see where people get their 1M bumpers from, I couldn't find one for my pre lci e90

I got the bumpers off ebay. Had to search through loads of ads to find one with little to no damage. Took ages but in the end got the front for £105 delivered with only minor scuffs no broken lugs etc and the rear for £80 delivered again no major damage only very slight scuff marks.

Good to hear the rear is a straight swap as this was the one I was concerned about the most. Having taken the front bumper off before it can only be the under trays that could possibly need altering. All else bolts directly onto the car...he said!

Sounds like you managed to get yourself a bargain mate. How much have you been quoted to paint them?
Looks like I will get back to my search, was going to go to M Style and drop a grand.

the rear as has been said is easy just be careful not to break the lugs when you pull it off once you've undone all the bolts get one person each side and pull the bumper straight back don't try levering the locating tabs out! I believe some plastic has to be cut away to fit the front bumper and there are some additional air ducts needed. you will need one extra pair of hands to fit. it is worth the effort!
