M tech bumper question
Hi all I have a 2007 530i, wanted to know if anyone here ever got their 5 series bumper replace with just the M tech front bumper. I was thinking of getting just the M tech bumper without getting the side skirt and rear? the reason why i ask is i wanted to know if the M tech bumper will match and level with the stock side skirt. If anyone has pics of this set up please post.
Thanks
John

I think it looks good.
The Umnitza bumper cover unit is a superior part. Very well molded and finished. However, to fit the actual bumper underneath you really should replace the foam pieces, which the bumper cover fits over, and are available mail order. If you do spirited driving you also should replace the brake ducts. The original brake ducts will not fit the M-Tech bumper well.
I added a pre-painted Taiwanese M5 style spoiler for around $100. Paint color match was great.
I also changed the OE yellow fog lights with the Umnitza xenon fogs which are fantastic. The roads in Northern Scottsdale do not have a lot of street lights and those fogs really illuminate the road well and look great, matching the xenon headlamps well.

Keep in mind though. The pic xx8055 posted is of the M5Tech front bumper while the pic BimmerFan posted is the MTech front. There's a difference in how the front bumpers "smile".
