Fitment Question M Front Bumper W/ IC & Oil Cooler

hl0m4n · 08-19-2007, 07:07 PM

i am looking into the m front bumper on 335i coupe. i have read that there might be some problem for those who got oil coolers and would need custom cut. anybody with m bumper got the final word on the bumper and oil cooler?

also will the new inter cooler upgrades comming out fill the entire gap of the bumper?

My bodyshop said they had some problem fitting the front bumper because of the turbo intercooler but got it done nonetheless.

There is a serious fitment problem in relation to the retrofitted oil cooler. If your oil cooler came installed from the factory, then i am unsure because I just do not know any differences in the component parts' location, especially the ducting leading to and from the wheel well. The body shop had to cut some of the oil cooler ducting on my 335i coupe, but again my oil cooler was a retofit, not installed from the factory.
