Does any one know if the install of the M5 Rear bumper calls for any cutting of the rear wheel wells? I know the install of the M-Tech rear bumper calls for a half inch cutting of the wheel whells do to the sportier curves on the sides, but not sure about the M5 Rear. If anyone knows where to get a DIY instruction or has info on the install of the M5 rear , it will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Thanks!

i watched the body shop install mine fit like a GLOW its the front bumper thats a pain rear is just straight forward. However u will need additional parts to complete the installation that CANNNOT be RE-used from old bumper. you will need GUIDE, BOTTOM CENTER, and REINFORCEMENT, LOWER CENTER let me know if you need anything else PM me. hope it helps
