Will an E92 rear bumper fit an E90?

Hi all who may be in the know.

Does anyone know if an E92/E93 M-sport bumper will fit an E90 (2007)?

Like an idiot I ignored my rear parking sensors for a little too long when reversing out of a parking spot and lightly tapped a wall with the rear bumper. Had the wall not been covered with granite chippings it wouldn't have been an issue, however I now have a rear bumper that looks like it had a bad case of acne as a teenager.
Being from Aberdeen (Scotland) and a typical scotsman, I'm loath to pay £555GBP plus painting and fitting to BM for a new M-sport bumper.
If only it had been the missus who was driving at the time, unluckily she was in the car when it happened so I can't even blame her.

Thanks.

Try ebay for parts and see if maybe u'll find one with the same colour , match it up if it looks the same then just fit it yourself.

cheapest option mate

+1 on the repair option. A decent bodyshop should be able to sort it out

Thanks for the information on the E92 bumper fit gents. I'll just go down the route of getting it repaired. I'll probably scuff it again anyway.
