[FFAD]

Hello,

I am new to this forum, and I am wondering what do I need to make this upgrade?

I have a 2009 e92 and I want to upgrade the front bumper for the m.

What do I need beside the bumper?

Bottom three grills?
I have fog lights, will they fit in the m bumper?

Thank you for your help,

[E46driver]

The bulbs are interchangeable. The lower grills for the Msport bumper should come with the purchase of it.

I'm pretty sure the bulbs for the fog lights are not interchangeable. The fog lights in the stock, non M-Sport E92 bumper use an H8 bulb, while the M-Sport bumper fog lights are an H11 bulb.

tkx for all your replies.

I already bought the bumper and ordered the bottom three grills. one in the center and on the side with fog lights.

I will revert if it is everything I need or as usual, there is always something missing.

best regards

Interested to hear what you have to say after you replace.

I am going to be purchasing an msport front bumper, pre-lci, and would like to know if I need to replace my fogs or use the ones currently on my car.

Please update us when you try it

The fog lights, bulbs, brackets from a standard E92 bumper & the same from MSport bumper are NOT interchangeable - you have to get the parts specific to the bumper you want to use. Unfortunately, you will see below, that next to the bumper cost itself - the fog lights are fairly expensive. If you can find them in a salvage yard you would be ahead of the game...

Here in U.S. it is posible to buy the MSport Front Bumper as a Kit - which includes everything you need for the conversion from Tischer BMW (forum sponsor).

I would assume that shipping outside of U.S. for this kit would be expensive.


> If you want to do the conversion, and use all OEM parts - here is a list I made up for my 2009 E92 328 of all the parts needed if bought individually (I was doing a comparison of pricing with the kit) to give you an idea - obviously you would need to buy the correct part numbers for your year/model.

> All parts listed below are included in the kit - so this is what you would get by buying the kit.

> Parts that can be re-used from your standard bumper are not included as you won't have to buy them. Pricing shown is cheapest available here in U.S. from yet another forum sponsor BMWParts4U:
