Hey Jack,

Would you happen to have the part number for the front M5 and rear M5 bumper?

hey cwest, your picture doesnt look like you installed the front bumper with the m5 fenders. How does it fit with the reg. fenders? Is it a big gap? I'm considering going with the front oem m5 bumper as well but if i need to switch out the fenders as well then i might reconsider. Thanks and what did everyone pay for their bumpers if you dont mind me asking?

getnlazyr i didnt use the M5 fender, if you want a perfect fitment you would use the M5 fender. The only downside to fitting on the non M5 bumper is just the 5-10mm gap due to the fender. To be honest the gap doesn't seem to mind me and can't notice it. I'll post pictures of the fenders where the bumpers meet up and you can see. I've spent $0 it was paid for by insurance but OEM M5 would cost $500 not including brake duct and bumper supports and M5 front foam enforcement. Hope this helps better understand it.

I´m not, but I heard it should be quite easy to do.
If bisnes are going like I hope.. I make full m5-look for summer, and using only original parts
.. to be honest, those replica-kits look awful, with foglights and stuff

Quick question...

Since my E60 has fogs, am I able to put fog lights on the OEM M5 front bumper? Any part number I would need?

I purchased the "Fog light" from umnitza that they were offering and it said "OEM Replica fog light", would that direct fight on the OEM M5 bumper?

Nope, Sorry OEM M5 bumpers don't have Fogs. You would have to modify them to make it work, it's been done on either this fourm or some other fourm but i've seen it. Ask Eurocarfan he made a post awhile back about Fogs for the M5 bumper.
