Oem bumper to M-tech

Well me and my gf got to her house around 3am Saturday. I wake up Sunday and her mom is leaving she is kind of crazy. I told her to watch my car its in the driveway and not to hit it. I hear my gf's moms car blasting music in the garage ready to leave. Well then I hear a boom and my gf looks out her window and her mom reversed right into my front bumper! Her mom was drunk I guess and stuff but now my bumper is messed up.

SO what i was wondering how much would it cost for me to get a m-tech or m3 front bumper for a e90.

also do I need anything else for it to match up with the oem fittings?

oh and the worst part about this is that I think i am paying for this out of my pocket. I might try to get her insurance so they can cover it.

it usually is cheaper to get the whole kit rather than the front bumper for the mtech. but yeah the front bumper + painting can be pretty expensive by itself, i assume it will be close to $1000 but not sure. You can always PM longtran for a price, bought mine from him

With paint on the new bumper cover it's up there, hopefully her insurance covers it, and hope it doesn't make any problem with you and your girlfriend

If you plan on keeping your car longer than your GF, then definitely have her mom's insurance pay for it

As others have said, it'll definitely cost over a grand for the bumper, foglights, paint, and install. Try looking in the "sale" section of this site, and you might get lucky. There are always bumpers for sale. People who have switched to Mtech/M3 may still have their OEM stock front bumpers lying around. What color is your car?

EDIT: I just noticed your car color. BTW, it should be "TiAg" not "Taig".

Yeah, make her pay for it. Actually, if u can get 1000+ get the Amuse ericsson front bumper. It goes around for approximately that amount, it'd make ur E90 look sexy.. That way, you can get more girl friends jk
