can't wait to see this finished. i wish my pockets were as deep as yours..
It's an OEM M5 bumper and OEM 1M bumper sawed in half and yes, plastic welded. It's got tremendous flex from what my body shop told me. (5fifteen in Burlingame, Ca) I was worried about dips and what not but they said they were pleasantly surprised to see how well it was built.--LOL pockets def. not deep, actually quite empty right about now

No links. It's not a pre made bumper. Though Im sure if there was a shop out there who wanted to make some money they would start fabricating them. No point in trying to hide how much it costs, but lets just say it costs more than my entire OEM Mtech kit brand new.

Quick question, does that bumper fit the standard fenders or is it made for M5 fenders? I really love the bumper but, I hate how the kidney grills aren't separated like on the m-tech bumper. That one little details bugs me about all bumpers.

The car looks badass tho!
Ding DIng Ding. fits standard fenders, but again it is all custom work so it can be altered/ adjusted to your liking. and thank you.


Here's another shot of them wet sanding the car. I sold the wheels that are currently mounted and I'm counting down the hours till my new wheels arrive!!! Still need to slap on the skirt extensions tho.

It's a tossup for me now. Not 100% sure I will show cuz of a delay with my wheels. I still may go and not show. It'll probably be a last min. call.
