Definately looks like a msport (mtech), not an M5.

I just fitted a msport one couple of months back.

ACS6, I noticed the hole was wider than the others but I thought it would be miner braket add-on! I'm being offered this bumper for $80 but it is missing the bottom mesh and the fog lights that's why I asked how much for a brand new one painted. If it is going to cost me the same as buying a new then it doesn't make sense to get it. What do you think?

a brand new one with paint and hardware is definitely going to cost you a lot more than $80.

Dont get it trust me....unless you dont have pdc......then just cover the holes.....pdc holders come machine welded.......buy using an swoping the pdc holders from your old bumpers could not make a very good fit.....and in the long run it might fall off.......try searching more on ebay......im sure if you wait you will be able to find another one.....bare in mind pdc holders are quite a big issue.......if there is another with a perfect pdc holders but alot of scratches you can still paint over them......but sticking a pdc holder on is much bigger issue......
