Default Finally installed the M5Tech Bumper pics

Installed it myself, took me about 3 hours.

Had to play with it to align it right, but it was not that hard. Only issue I have now is that the new foglights bulbs do not fit on to the oem connnector.

So I do not know what my options are here, do I try to get the connector that fits the new fogs and then cut the oem connector and put on the new one, or what to do not sure.

I am wondering if I do an HID figs kit will it fit the oem connectors and the fogs, ugh



love how the car looks though

LOL suprisingly I have had 7 BMWs by now, none had tint lol.

I have no idea why man, always plan on doing the tint, but never get to it, always spend the money on something else.

Got it from trinityautosports here on the forum they are a sponsoer, the guy is nerwyll.

He hooked me up with the bumper.No instructions bro, you pop the hood and start taking off nuts lol. Five or six bolts on top of bumper, three under each wheel well and four obove the grill and the bumper comes off. Take the headlights off first, its ounly four bolts per headlight.Not that hard to install my man and definitely worth the money I love the way it looks. I hated the oem one the stock one, the car looked like it was retarted and smiling all the time.
