I have look everywhere but I couldn't find for the F10 535 M Tech Bumper. or for BMW F10 in general.

if you know any trick please share it with me that will be great.

Thanks.

Vinyl wrap with color match. Cardboard template cut vinyl to template. Done. Flat surface like that you can use a thicker than average vinyl for a little more protection.

Here ya go. There's a nice chrome one but you'd probably want to vinyl wrap it after install and there's a rubber one:

I have the same problem with my F07 from baby stroller and luggage.

I tried to take a pic but the film doesn't show...

Yeah but being his car is black it won't be noticeable. Plus that part of the bumper i had scratches on mine from my kids not lifting grocery bags out of the trunk rather dragging them across so I can see how this can be helpful
