Having issues with my 1M/M5 installation. My 1M spoiler will not fit the bumper because the 1M bumper portion is an insert. It looks like Harold's bumper was modified to fit the 1M spoiler. Please make a note of that detail for your GB build. Any advise on the bumper reinforcement.?
Joe,
Have a few issues.
Bumper won't mount to car unless we cut the stock bumper reinforcement.
Front lip doesn't fit bumper because doesn't match up on the ends. They cut the 1M middle section but leave the ends E60.
Let me know what to do....

That should have been a gimme regarding an oem 1m splitter fitting to the custom hybrid bumper. That is exactly the reason why I didn't get that eBay one you bought. The e60 bumper is way wider than the 1m bumper so it won't fit regardless. I could be wrong, but Anthony (redrum) bought the authentic version you bought (RevozSport) and it looked to be a direct fitment.
He did however take that upper piece off that molds to the curves just cuz he didn't like how it sat too low.
As far as the bumper reinforcement being cut, that one is all on you. Mine was perfect fitment.
No offense to that white M5 but I personally think that dude ruined a perfectly good car.
