OEM M5 Bumper fitment!!!

Hey guys,

Maybe someone can help with this..
I have a 2012 535xi non msport and I'm looking at getting a oem m5 front bumper.. Just a few questions:

1.Would there be any fitment issues?
2.Any modification that needs to be done?
3. It's just a bumper without the installation kit, so can I use it from my current non msport bumper?

If you can think of anything I might encounter (issue) with this, id appreciate the heads up.

Thank you advance.

It will only fit if you get the fenders as well. I'm also pretty sure you're going to need some of the mounting accessories.

You can get a replica, which doesn't require extra part, but may need a bit of tweeking by the body shop.

Check out a thread called "post pictures of your aftermarket bumpers" in the media sections. There is a member who has a great looking rep he got from ebay

Thanks for all the info. I was not aware that I would need the fenders as well. I guess finding an aftermarket one that has the best fit is the ideal way to go.
Will have to look more into it.

Thanks again.

No mods, accepts PDC, includes fog lights (if you want them) very flexible polyurethane, I have even hit a few bumps/curbs no issues.

As they said oem will require oem m5 fenders . You will need to get a rep. Mod bargains have it and Fitment it good. Even got the front lip to match it also.

@UAM951 @SUPER6 - thank for the additional info. I liked the m5 better because it was OEM and had a great deal, but might get one like yours since fitment is good.

Thanks again.
