Don't you need bumper guides?

for reference http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...=bumper+guides

SalM · 01-26-2011, 04:55 PM

^^ I was thinking of bumper guides needing to be bought also.

VTECaddict · 01-26-2011, 06:14 PM

Not absolutely necessary. It will fit without the new guides, but the "proper" way is to get new guides.

exclusivo · 01-26-2011, 07:40 PM

get the guides, its like 50 shipped

BOSSBMW · 01-26-2011, 08:04 PM

you /will/ need the guides.

i have a pre-lci he has a lci so dose that make a differance?

1QuikWS6 · 01-27-2011, 04:14 AM

I would definitely get the guides if installing OEM M-tech. If you're going with the MTech Rep rear bumper I don't think the guides are needed as they designed the bumper to work with the factory standard guides...

it looks so, the inside of the bumper has a little guide on it that hooks into that spot, or atleast thats what it looks like. i havent installed it yet, but thats my guess.

BillLee · 01-27-2011, 08:30 PM

what about the front bumper?

NYFelix87 · 01-27-2011, 08:36 PM

If you don't mind me asking did you purchase it used or new, I am also going to be looking for a M-Tech bumper in the near future.

k3m0-330i · 01-27-2011, 08:37 PM

NYFelix87 · 01-27-2011, 08:43 PM
