Ok. Install of my M rear bumper - many thanks to nicke60gre for the briefing and to our fellow member Justin who lives close by to help me with the install and some cutting !
You will need to make a printout of the BMW M conversion pdf as well and refer to SECTION 7 for important info regarding some very simple cutting involved to the plastic rear wheel arch.
If you don't have new pushpins and screws for your M rear bumper the kit will set you back about 25 euros.
Good luck !

Very good instructions Andy (along with the side skirts), although I can't download it due to my VERY slow connection, I'm sure that is very useful 
Still no fast ethernet..?

YEAH!! I already have it and that's not 1st April joke!!!
but I've speednet testing it and it reads max download speed 3.8 Mbps :thumbsdown: - max upload 2.0 Mps But that's ok for such an all new hi-speed type of connection in Greece. Hope they will fix it and I will get the promissed 10 Mbps speed soon.
Now I can upload some more beauties

BTW I dont believe you will ever get the theoretical 10Mbs. It may come close but the advertised speeds are a hype everywhere. In any case it will make a huge difference.
