Yes, you asked on the right time. I just did mine with my dealer.

You need to run your vin# with the dealer to see which "main parts" you would need from below retrofit diagrams.
What you actually need depend on what options your car has (pdc, camera, etc), hence running a vin.



We thought running vin with above diagram will give us all the parts needed. We were wrong, there are more parts from different diagram needed also .

Basically, below additional parts are what needed to correctly bolt the lower parts of both front and rear m sport bumper,
51758045195 Front Cover bottom left (lower airduct, #8 in this diagram)
51758045196 Front Cover bottom right (lower airduct, #8 in this diagram)
51757905276 M Adapter for engine encapsulaiton (#11 in this diagram)
51758049042 Rear Cover botom right (needed on 528i since the muffler only on the left passenger side, RHD car. #5 in this diagram)

You can order through BMW for $50k+ or outside for much less. Long wait though either way.

You probably will be seeing mine pretty soon. Let's meet and check it out. If you like it I can refer the shop to you.

Not sure who has the alpine white (AW) with black spoiler. Only Jxnco here has the AW but don't think he has spoiler yet. Might be an old member kfiend, but he disappeared long ago. That car has white line tail lights, black Breyton wheels and lowered?

That should be nice. The hardest part is to hide the left muffler body. It would be odd, if looking from behind, you can only see left muffler, while the other side only tips. I was thinking about 3D exhaust but end up going standard m sport route (just the black tips).

Yeah, that could be the drawback but let see how it goes. From guys who have done it, it's barely noticeable. Only when you look from ground level you see clearly the one muffler. May investigate other aftermarket rear diffuser or rear lip later and see if it can hide better.

30k if do it outside bro.

Yeah, once you caught the mod bug, it's kinda crazy. Just do it one by one.

Look at mlai bro aka wheel slut.

BMS powerbox is on my wish list. But may be later. I guess stealership will void all my car's warranty.
