Oem bumper to M-tech

wazup773 · 02-08-2010, 02:00 PM

Well me and my gf got to her house around 3am Saturday. I wake up Sunday and her mom is leaving she is kind of crazy. I told her to watch my car its in the driveway and not to hit it. I hear my gf's moms car blasting music in the garage ready to leave. Well then I hear a boom and my gf looks out her window and her mom reversed right into my front bumper! Her mom was drunk I guess and stuff but now my bumper is messed up.

SO what i was wondering how much would it cost for me to get a m-tech or m3 front bumper for a e90.

also do I need anything else for it to match up with the oem fittings?

wazup773 · 02-08-2010, 02:03 PM

oh and the worst part about this is that I think i am paying for this out of my pocket. I might try to get her insurance so they can cover it.

lpphreakx06 · 02-08-2010, 02:09 PM

Def get her insurance to pay. It'll be 1000+

ibeclueless · 02-08-2010, 02:21 PM

get the money from insurance and use that to buy your new front bumper

wazup773 · 02-08-2010, 02:22 PM

Wow 1000+ for a damn bumper. lol i have to get her insurance now.

wazup773 · 02-08-2010, 02:24 PM

can some one with more experience chime in

I just need to know what else i need to put a different bumper on any extensions for the guard under the car or anything

c_jeong89 · 02-08-2010, 02:28 PM

it usually is cheaper to get the whole kit rather than the front bumper for the mtech. but yeah the front bumper + painting can be pretty expensive by itself, i assume it will be close to $1000 but not sure. You can always PM longtran for a price, bought mine from him

wazup773 · 02-08-2010, 02:30 PM

did you buy the whole kit or just the front bumper

StAb... · 02-08-2010, 02:39 PM

shes making u pay for it???? on tischer the front bumper costs 940 unpainted, and thats without shipping charge. you should really get that b1tches insurance to pay for it and pay the remainder wit money outta your pocket

eurocharged · 02-08-2010, 02:42 PM

With paint on the new bumper cover it's up there, hopefully her insurance covers it, and hope it doesn't make any problem with you and your girlfriend

khoda355 · 02-08-2010, 02:48 PM

yeah its going to be over 1k.... and you dont need anything, new fog light bulbs and bumper kit and you will be good to go... but like others have said. get her to pay for it, that total bs that she is not when she clearly hit it...

what is her look on this whole situation? and wtf did your gf say?! haha

Zero.7 · 02-08-2010, 03:41 PM

If you plan on keeping your car longer than your GF, then definitely have her mom's insurance pay for it

As others have said, it'll definitely cost over a grand for the bumper, foglights, paint, and install. Try looking in the "sale" section of this site, and you might get lucky. There are always bumpers for sale. People who have switched to Mtech/M3 may still have their OEM stock front bumpers lying around. What color is your car?

EDIT: I just noticed your car color. BTW, it should be "TiAg" not "Taig".

mycoupe · 02-08-2010, 04:50 PM

Make that b1tch pay for sure, cuz I guarantee you you'll be kicking yourself later when you guys break up if you don't!!!

Is her mom hot? Cash or ASS!

i dont think any amount of ass would make me not let you pay for it! it would be a good way to say sorry tho!

wazup773 · 02-09-2010, 02:20 AM

well my gf's mom is just a crazy drunk lady lol she really hasnt said much but i am gonna make her insurance pay for it. my gf is so on my side because its her moms fault 100%. no way i dont want any ass from her even if it just for a sorry lol

But hopefully I am going to get her insurance and call her company this week.

Go through insurance, take it to a shop, let them know you want the replacement to be mtech, = done.

Juan.sidarta · 02-10-2010, 02:59 PM

Yeah, make her pay for it. Actually, if u can get 1000+ get the Amuse ericsson front bumper. It goes around for approximately that amount, it'd make ur E90 look sexy.. That way, you can get more girl friends
