Default M5 needs new rear bumper

Hi All,

While parked at Nob Hill my 2006 M5 was hit , some scraches and rear bumper was damaged to make a crease on it, so now I am looking to replace rear bumper.

Long story short the damage is minimal, called my insurance and was referred to Car West Elite, and got an estimate of $1200. My deductible is $1000, that is not a big deal, however if I do that the insurance will report Collision damage to my car, for a damaged bumper so not worth it.

I am thinking of just buying a bumper and having the repair shop paint it and install it Even it its about $1000 still worth not having a loss on the car, since its only cosmetic. On Craiglist I found a clean M5 2008 bumper , but will that fit my 2006, both bumpers have the parking sensors.

Regards,
JR

To answer your question, yes, the '08 bumper will fit perfectly.
