I have searched with no avail I am about to get my new M3 rep bumper for my e90 painted and while test fitting it I noticed that the fogs on the m3 bumper are ballast lights, instead of the H7? or H8's on the stock fogs.

I believe that I need a wire converter, is this looking what I need?

And next, after test fitting I had to put the stock bumper back on. On the drivers side front fender there is two screws that hold the front bumper to the fender, they are right on the edge between the two. Undoing these two screws will enable you to remove the bumper. However, I must have stripped the hole out () because the screws no longer "screw" into the holes I have the passenger side screwed, but the drivers side is just hanging there. I looked on Tisher and I believe that I need to order (2) number 7's the "holes" that the screws go into.

I really need the help, I can't really install the new bumper, or just let mine hang there.

Thanks guys/gals

Hey man I just did the same thing but I got lucky and didn't strip anything.
I don't remember seeing inserts for that???? I could be wrong but either way if you just go to your local dealer these bits aren't pricey at all . Instead of paying extra for shipping.

You don't need a converter. Just splice into the existing wires.

Perfect, just what I wanted to hear

Please tell me what you find out on the stripped clip. I have the same problem with one of mine. Also in the process of mounting the m3 bumper rep.

The paint shop, (just dropped it off) said to try to get bigger screws to rethread the plastic hole. The stock screw width are 4mm I got 5mm, so hopefully these will rethread themselves.

Yeah that's what I was thinking of trying. Do you know the part number if it needs replaced and if it's easily changed. I haven't removed my bumper lately to look at it.

Thanks for the heads up!

Here is the link to Tisher, I believe the part we need is #7 the "nut nut back" as they call it.
