I recently acquired a OEM M-sport front bumper and I have been doing a lot of research but nothing is clear. Some people say you have to buy original brake duct, and the bottom plastic that covers the engine underneath will not fit right. is in it the same like the Umnitza and other vendors sells and you have to buy the under carriage plastic cover to fit right?

Can anyone share there experience installing a sport bumper in to there non sport e60.

I wanna install the bumper with no modification.

I'm pretty sure my OEM kit came with new brake ducts, so I'm going to say you probably need different brake ducts. The bottom engine shield is too long, but you can just trim it back with a pair of heavy duty scissors (I used metal snips). Just make sure you measure twice, and cut once

I used the umnitza m5tech and it was complete with lower grill etc. this replaced my original bumper. All I had to do was remove some of the lower styro crash pad. If you don't, then there will probably be too much downward pressure and it messes with the gaps. The amount that needs to be removed May Aldo vary depending if the bumper is oem or not. When you put the bumper into position you will able to see how much needs to be removed. Just take a razor blade and trim it. I didn't replace my brake ducts. I seem to think that I used everything on the car. My lower underbody panels fit with in mods needed.

thanks for all the replies. I have the OEM sports front bumper. so the undercarriage panel has to be trim.
