Install MTech Bumper on car with Active Cruise

J90 · 01-26-2015, 06:49 PM

Hey there,

Has anyone put an MTech bumper on an E92/3 with Active Cruise? I can see on RealOEM there is a specific center grill and cover for that bumper, but I don't know:

1) Do you have to relocate the sonar "eye"?

2) Can you install a rep bumper but buy the QACC grill from BMW seperately to use with it? Doe sit fit?

I'm looking to do a rep bumper since everyone seems to be happy with theirs, but am unsure how they adapt to Active Cruise.

Thanks!

My car is finally in the shop getting this done. Anyone know the answer?

Thanks!

Peakay did you get it fitted??

I haven't personally worked with the Active Cruise as I don't have it - but I DO have a rep MTech front bumper from TunerStock - I can tell you that the OEM bumper grilles/fog lights fit in that rep bumper perfectly (I didn't like the quality of the rep grilles & fogs supplied with bumper).

So I would assume that the specific grilles for MTech with Active Cruise would fit well also - as long as you buy a quality MTech rep bumper, I don't have much faith or experience with cheap a$$ chinese bumpers from eBay...

From what I've gathered the only M Sport bumper that had ACC was Europe cars. So I would need the European grill pieces. Haven't been able to find them.
