535i diffuser non m sport questions!

Hi guys I just got a 2011 535i non m sport.
I'm looking for a diffuser.

My question- what is the difference between a m-sport back bumper and a non-m sport? Can I still put a after market diffuser? If so what can you guys recommend? Where is the best place to purchase? would I have to get a m style back bumper to do modifications/diffuser? Please let me know from your expertise!

Non M


MSport


The rear reflectors sits high on the bumper vs the non M where it sits low. The MSport has a removeable diffuser whereas the non M isn't.

This is the Hamann style diffuser for the non M which you will have to cut the bottom of your bumper to make it fit.




The MSport has a wide selection of diffusers to choose from whether you're looking for carbon fiber, single/quad tip configurations








Hope this helps

Since we both have the non M what I did is picked up a MSport rear bumper and the Carbon Fiber DTM Diffuser. Picked up both from the MarketPlace here

Looks like that's what I'm going to do, wait for a deal to come up on a m-sport rear bumper
