435i to M4 bumper

Seba77W · 11-21-2017, 05:23 PM

I found this M4 style bumper cover for $200 local pick up. Only thing is my car has PDC and this doesn't. Would it be possible to retrofit the bumper to put the sensors on? And is it worth it.
Thanks.

Sure its possible, I wouldnt renounce my fwd pdc just by swapping the bumper. Cant judge if its already painted but if not, just adapt the hole positions from your original bumper and drill them. After paintjob and inserting the old ones no one would see.

Thanks.

If this is a replica bumper check the back side of it. There should be marked areas for them to drill the PDC holes. Then your original PDC parts should be used on this bumper.

Pretty sure you need wider fenders to fit this bumper

It's not from an M4. It's a body kit style made for the F32.

I wasnt convinced to the end with this retrofit products and more worried about overall quality, paint and fittings. So how is it?

Mine is the M3 bumper for the F30. Zero problems with anything you just described.
