MSport Bumper

xXSupa · 03-29-2015, 05:18 AM

I'm considering purchasing a used MSport Bumper off a local shop, but the bumper appears to be missing some parts. The bumper came off a 2012 335is, but I want to keep my fog lights. What other parts would I need to properly install this bumper on my 2011 E92 Non-MSport, and where can I purchase these parts?

Right now, I know that I'm gonna need the fog light assembly, and the supporting brackets. Anything I'm missing?

Here's the picture they sent me:

Where can you find that for $110?

xXSupa · 03-29-2015, 06:00 PM

So from my knowledge right now, I need the following parts:

Fog light (left) - 63177839865
Fog light (right) - 63177839866
Fog light mount support (left) - 51118035891
Fog light mount support (right) - 51118035892
Air outlet cover (left) - 51118050585
Air outlet cover (right) - 51118050586

I assume all other parts are transferable from my current non-MSport bumper?

Also make sure you have the right brake ducts, wheel well liner, and if you need the underhood shield extension (#11).

Just curious, how much are they selling you the bumper for?

They're asking $500 CAD (That's around $400 USD). I'm gonna see how much it would cost to get the other parts, then use that to bargain with them.

Check out ebay, these things go for dirt cheap on there.

You can get that bumper brand new OEM for $533 USD.

Or go aftermarket copy for a lot less. Here is an entire conversion kit for $560:

That last link is for a pre-LCI, the OP will want the LCI kit since he is 2011 model, which is this one:

FYI, the 335is coupe did not come with fog lights, only the convertible did, but I *think* the LCI M-sport and 335is front bumpers are the same.

Isn't it already painted the right color?
500 CAD is already really cheap for a painted bumper

Went in to check it out today. They already sold it

Paint wasn't in the best condition, so I would've needed to get it repainted anyways.

techwhiz · 03-30-2015, 07:39 PM

ECS or eBay.

If youre looking to paint anyway, maybe try this one?
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/BMW-3-SERIES-...item541824cb2e

They also accept offers

BeastMode335i · 03-31-2015, 06:00 PM

Seems like many people have good luck with aftermarket reps from sellers all around, not just ebay.. JGMODS, ECS, ect..

raceyBMW · 04-01-2015, 02:58 PM

Mine is from JGMODS, and fitment and quality is just about as good as you could ever ask for in a rep.

xXSupa · 04-02-2015, 12:36 PM

Alright, so I found a new vendor that I'm planning to buy from. Gonna involve shipping, so I'll keep you guys updated.

How hard is it to remove the old bumper, and install this one? Is it a direct swap, or is trimming required? I plan to have a couple of friends come over and help out. Is it doable?

Well, I have bumper from JGMods with near perfect fitment, so I can't vouch for other vendor bumpers - but removal/install is not hard at all & should involve NO trimming if a quality bumper.

Did mine myself, all though I did have my wife hold the bumper in place while replacing some of the bolts just to make it easier...

raceyBMW · 04-02-2015, 05:55 PM

No trimming of bumper needed, though you may end up wanting to trim the plastic piece behind the lower center opening if you don't like the looks of it there and want to open up more air to the FMIC.
