M Sport E92 bodywork fitting

hops23 · 11-18-2013, 12:29 PM

How much would you expect to pay for fitting of E92 M Sport front/rear bumpers and side skirts assuming its a bolt on job with no bodywork or paint?

Also, how much would you expect to pay for a complete set in good condition?

Just trying to weigh it all up before getting too carried away on ebay

id expect about £150 to fit the front bumper, the skirts and rear bumper are easy DIY. you can buy complete kit from bmw for about £800. be careful when buying off ebay as the front bumpers rarely have all the necessary fittings. painting is about £300.

Front bumper isnt hard to do...just a lot of bolts and 2 in particular quite fiddly to get to be apart from that its straightforward. Side skirts are easy. Rear bumper i've never done so dont know.

Thanks, will check out some online guides as sounds like I can fit it myself.

just be careful with the rear bumper, when you have undone the retaining bolts about 10 x 8mm underneath and 2 inside the rear lamps (these have to be removed, easy job) get someone to help you grab the bumper both sides and just pull it straight back this will release the tabs on the sides without breaking them, a lot of people try to lever them out with a knife, that's NOT how its done. there are many diy on the rear bumper and skirts.
