Another 1m bumper thread

Sha · 05-03-2016, 05:53 PM

Incase anyone was wondering how a chinese 1m bumper would look on a red e90 lci here it is. Fits quite good, i would say 5/7 and the body shop matched the color fine. There is only a slight gap on the drivers side which i assume they couldnt adjust or rushed the job but overall fine.

I actually got mine fitting a bit better by heating it and bending it a bit. The heat of the paint booth warped it a little.

Yeah probably that would do it but i dont want to play with it since i plan to let go of the car, did you code out your fogs btw? i forgot to give the fog plugs(?) to the body shop so they didnt install them

Is the Fiberglass, FRP or Polyurethane? Link to where to buy?

Ive been searching for an e92 LCI Polyurethane 1M bumper but I don't think the exist, other than from LTMW and its way too expensive.

No, I used the plugin fog canceller things that came with it. They work great.

I've taken my bumper off and reinstalled it probably 10 times already, it isn't hard.
