2013 BMW M6  [10.00]
I would avoid those eBay bumpers man, the fit and finish is usually very poor and the customer service usually sucks. I bought a PU lip for my stock bumper (same as yours) and when it didn't fit they just refused to do anything, because in their ad it said "modification required to fit" when in reality the lip was like 1/4 inch too short.

I personally don't like the look of the M5 bumper, it looks a little too aggressive for a standard 5er, but to each their own. Kies Motorsports is where I got mine from (they carry the M Sport and M5 style) and their components are top notch OEM parts. It fits perfect, and mine has PDC too. Really not too hard to remove and install. And trust me it will completely transform your car. For some reason I kept wanting to trade my car in before I did the bumper but once I did it, I fell in love all over again.

You said "not sure what M5 bumper to get", but only the second one is a M5-style. The first pic is a M Sport bumper. Just get the M Sport bumper and call it a day.

Keis/Mod Bargains/X-PH and those eBay sellers source their bumpers from the same places. What you're paying extra for is the customer service.

yup! Kies doesn't sell OEM bumpers. they're aftermarket as well
