Honestly the oem mtech with a badass diffuser is going to look and fit the best. That's the direction I'm headed when I get things going... might as well spray it all at once. |

I agree. The m sport rear bumper looks pretty nice imo. Plus it would be cheaper to not have to do the quarter panels. The side skirts will need some adjusting to fit since the front will be wider.

My goal is to keep this build as OEM as possible, down to the wires. However, when my time comes for an an E91 M3 build, I'll demonstrate my grafting skills once again. Heres my F10 M5 w/ a F8x combo, and a E89 Z4 w a F8x diffuser I did in the past. |

I bought and installed few of them on my E91 builds including couple DCT cars. They fit well, and are about half the price of OEM. Check Rockauto.com for part 51128041140 or your local supplier. Non PDC covers are scarce. There also little over $100 to spend on OEM brackets and lower side filler pieces, on top of the diffuser. Rear Msport E91 conversion is a unfortunately pricey, but oh so worth it |

I've done 6 n54 swaps in total. All except the current 6mt xdrive one were sold. About to start another one as well.
PM me if you'd like, don't want to clutter up your thread. But you could say we have more N54 wagons in MI than the anemic N52 ones Funny story about your donor though... I was the highest bidder on it when it went thru the auction block first time, as I needed a DCT donor for an E86 Z4 swap. It just didn't met reserve. Quote:

Here's my order with them few months ago, it's best to buy two or more at a time. Also, check with your local auto body parts suppliers using the partslink numbers Last edited by mad1stgen; 06-04-2019 at 07:30 AM.. |

Long over due update.
Tore down the outside of the motor for some cleaning, walnut blasting, and a bunch of new stuff including a new (OEM) valve cover. |

Made some huge progress last weekend. Everything is in, will need to go over all the misc brackets and finish the cooling, then onto the wiring.
