Looks like Spengler (DTM - Team BMW) was having a little fun

Seems like my water pump died on me (or something in that area is leaking pretty bad) I think I will try to replace it with this.

Does anyone have experience in DIYing this?

Hey all,
I just got a 2012 328i sport series and would like to know if anyone had experience in changing to the m-sport body kit. How much did it cost, where did you do it and if you think it was worth the $$.
And also any garage in near Montreal where i can get some tuning and other work.
Thank you very much!

Welcome aboard. The M Sport kit is purchasable separately and can be installed by any decent body shop. They'll need to prep, color match/paint and clear coat. I'm not sure its worth it. The cost alone to buy from BMW Canada will be pretty brutal. I bought my various aftermarket body parts from Taiwan and HK and had them painted and installed locally (Camo Custom on Norman in Lachine).

The M kit was one of the best mods I put on my car. However... I was very lucky to have cracked my bumper, and just as I was about to replace it on insurance, I came across someone selling it in *my colour* for $900, front, rear and sides. So my perspective is clearly very biased. I also put the Performance diffuser - another excellent piece.

From another perspective, I've been hunting for a JCW Aero kit for my Mini for almost three years now. I won't pay retail, as it'll be close to 1.5-2K before painting and installation.

So is it worth it? Unequivocally yes, but not for what it costs retail.

Thanks for the welcome! I will try to contact them too to see if they can help me also with that!

Yes, the body kit is on the top of my priority list too. Looks so much better!

I am having parts quote for over 5k, labor not included... Looks like I need to find aftermarket kit then. Any recommendation of places to look for it? Is there anything else that needs to be bought alongside with the kit?
Thanks Again!

You should check the US buy and sell forums - some people sell bumpers and stuff. You'll need skirts, bumpers and a diffuser. Also wheel well covers which are slightly different on the M bumper (since they have vents for the brakes). And clips and junk.

You can look at places like DTM (I think), they make knockoffs. Just PLEASE don't buy a fake M3 bumper. it's the ugliest thing you can do to your car. Especially since it doesn't delete fogs - so it looks stupid.

ooooh. I didn't realise there was a 2012 F30 model year - you must have one of the first

yeah there's no way you will find any reps / aftermarket yet. too early to have Chinese production ramped up ... give it a few months.

I guess I'll have to wait then. And yes it was one of the first, according to the vin the production date was in March 2012...

Haha, nice.

make sure you follow the cosmetic mods threads on F30Post. Since it's a new platform, stuff will start happening pretty soon I think.
