You can go OEM or aftermarket. OEM will provide better quality and fitment. Umnitza and TrinityAutosport are two venders on the forum that carry the aftermarket bumpers. You should know that the spacing of the openings on the aftermarket bumper are different than the OEM bumper (on at least the M5 replica vs OEM M5 bumper). You'll also be looking at limited selection of diffusers if you decide not to go with an OEM bumper. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

I have a quad diffuser for the MTech if you are interested in it let me know. I bought it and just before I received it I came across a Hamann quad diff. So I have two now. Obviously the Hamann is installed. This diff fits nice to the aftermarket MTech but I don't know about figment to the oem.
I believe west means that the quad opening are not like oem. If you go m5 rep you will need to install bumper then have exhaust ran. the other problem as he stated, is that aftermarket bolt on parts do not fit well to rep bumpers unless you are buying them from where you got the bumper. If you buy something from eBay for an example chances are that it will not fit.

Oh, I see what you mean. Well that shouldn't be a problem, that's how I planned on doing it anyway since i want to go with the biggest tips I can. Also, if I go with an aftermarket m5, then I most likely will not need anything else attached to it.

How much are you looking to get for it shipped to 11208? I have the OEM mtech, hopefully it should not be too much of a difference.
