Check with RW Carbon. I think they said they were expecting some kits in shortly. Not sure if they have all those, but they might.

We do have the F80 style front bumpers arriving soon, but the only option they have is with or without PDC

If you have the side cameras, the best solution is to have the body shop drill out the holes.

so I guess they will never have that option available? Im just not too satisfied with just holes and whatever else it will take to mount them. the factory one has the brackets to support the camera and keep it at the right position....then again I never use those cameras...hmmm

what about the rear bumper? any future plans?

No plans right now to come out the ones with camera holes as of now. I know there is demand for them so it is possibility. First we just want to get our first batch in. The unloading at the ports is a nitemare right now.

Rears will be coming out soon as well

Yeah I would be surprised if any food lasted that long. We are in the same boat. Some of our orders have been postpone up to 2 months now.

I am looking for this M3 style front bumper too but not interested in its rear bumper..Do you change your existing m-sport rear bumper to 4-output M3 style rear bumper? Or leave it be?

Actually the factory ones are just drilled holes with a plastic-type bracket held on by 3m adhesive. You would either just need to use 3m tape and reuse the old brackets or order an oem replacement set for the front bumper, comes with the 4 PDC holders, the side camera/park assist holders, and the headlight washer brackets as well. Shouldn't be more than $20-$30.

Oh well damn, there's my solution lol. Thanks!

I can't get this guy to respond. I have been trying to get ahold of him since the 3rd of this month. Also sent an email directly to him.

Still on the search for a reputable seller.

I emailed him about something once and he didn't repsond. Emailed him again later about something else and he did. I dunno. I think the guys that have bought from him have had good experiences. Guess he's just not the most chatty. heh

Got mine installed today after my m performance carbon fiber lip ripped off and cracked my bumper... Unfortunately, after two weeks of waiting, they forgot/messed up painting the headlight washer covers! 😡 will post more once completed.

pkancel · 04-29-2015, 01:35 AM

I can attest to this guy and his product. Selma. I did the Msport upgrade last year. He is a good guy and yes not chatty. He lives near me so he brought the product home with him and delivered to my body shop. I started with the rear and the fit and finish was so good that after my body shop painted and installed, I ordered the front and then had that done a few weeks after. Selma stuff is nearly OEM quality. My body shop said the prep before paint only needed light scuffing/sanding and everything lined up perfect. Now the only problem i have, is that i want this version.

M3CRUZN · 02-05-2016, 04:35 PM

Can i use front lip spoiler and diffuser of any brand for this replica bumpers? Do they havr the same size as the M3 oem?

Level3 · 02-05-2016, 06:40 PM

I got mine on Ebay and I doubt you can put any brand diffuser or lip on these bumpers. I bought mine for $384 shipped and it came with a front lip on it. Body shop said it was great quality.
