thanks mate, I really admire how you are always willing to help. do you have by any chance any part number? specially the ones for the shock absorbers as I can't find em in here http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...=51&fg=15&hl=1

Well, I've said it before and I say it again; Why would people ask questions if they didn't need the answers ?

Here's the list with few notes:

*Trim cover, bumper, primered, front 51117899050 (Bumper without PDC)
*Trim cover, bumper, primered, front 51117899051 (Bumper with PDC)
*Holding strap 51111973721
*Grid, center 51117895739
*FLAP PRIME COATED LEFT 51117111741 (There are two different flaps available for some reason, but these fitted my bumper. A model year thing maybe. I also realized these are the exact same flaps that I had in my very old standard pre-LCI bumper. MTech bumper flaps don't fit.)
*FLAP PRIME COATED RIGHT 51117111742
*LEVER LEFT 51117060585
*LEVER RIGHT 51117060586
*Spring 51117061659 x2
*FRONT LEFT BRAKE AIR DUCT 51117895743
*FRONT RIGHT BRAKE AIR DUCT 51117895744
*Shock absorber front left 51117895741
*Shock absorber front right 51117895742
*Flap, towing eye, primed 51117898120
*SPOILER FRONT 51117900826 (Unnecessary, I think)

These are the two other flaps. They are slightly different shape.
*COVERING PRIMEND LEFT 51117898151
*COVERING PRIMEND RIGHT 51117898152

If you're not changing the front fenders, there are couple of things:
- I'm not sure which side brackets would work better, the M5 one or the standard one that you have now.
- The air duct and its hole in a standard fender's wheel housing are different shaped than M5 duct, so you have to play a bit with that.

wow, you are a life saver or is it maybe flat eric who is always helping people out?

I got to agree with everyone, your car is nice and I love reading your posts! Did you change out your side skirts or are they stock ones that came with the car?

Anzafin

Side skirts are from the OEM mtech package which I had earlier. The mtech package was retrofitted though.

Phenomenal work your car. I have a quick question. I'll be purchasing my replica m5 rear bumper tomorrow and just wanted to know what this piece was called. I think it makes the overall look so much cleaner.

Can someone correct me if I'm wrong, the umnitza version doesn't come with this piece right?

EDIT: Umnitza's version does come with it.

Lastly does anyone know where I can source one from? Thanks!

Great work as always!!

I would save some money and just get the OEM M5 rear. The replicas have that weird bent\curve in the middle between the mufflers that make it look deformed.

shiraki

Yes thats a big fear of mine I've seen it on a number of the Umnitza's rear bumpers. But his is also a M5 (pp material) replica and there isn't any bend/curve that you're referring to right? I'm so tempted to get one off ebay there are a number of listings that look exatly like the bumper he got... I think Umnitza just has us drinking their koolade

balbs

Nope. That one looks pretty good actually. Wonder if that can be shipped to the US?
