Another M sport bumper thread (SORRY)

Hi all,

I am about to pull the trigger on the M sport front bumper from either SELMA or **********s. Do any of ya'll have a preference or opinion on which I should go with? I believe both comes with all of the parts necessary. Do my fenders have to be changed? One of my fenders has a dent and will need to be fixed when I bring my car in to the shop.

Do you think 400$ is a reasonable price for paint/installation?

Thanks!

im assuming you are talking about mod bargains. more than likely they are the same bumpers and its a Selma bumper they are reselling. So long as its coming out of taiwan you should be fine. $400 for paint and install is pretty good. I want to say the going rate to just paint the bumper is $300.

I have the selma lip for my msport bumper and fitment was very good for an aftermarket choice.

So I haven't bought a bumper yet cause I have a couple of questions. After some research it seems like Selma comes w/ all the necessary parts. However, I have headlight washers, PDC, active cruise control, surround view (side camera), and park assistant.

I'm pretty sure I will have to get the side view camera holes drilled.

It seems like I may have to get extra parts - like sensor holders?

I have a load of options and want to make sure I have all bases covered before purchasing... Any inputs/opinions to those that have made a switch from sports line to the m sport front bumper?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Send Selma an email/ebay message. You can talk to them over the phone and they'll help you out. I've gotten several parts from them and they're friendly and knowledgable (and not some outsourced call center in Philippines).
