Like most exhaust with quad tip out there. They are basically dual exit like the one found on your 435i with split tip for a quad look.... there no fake tip like Remus( I'm not talking shit here just a sample). I know I know it's all for looks expensive at that

OP... good to know your ok. That's a good crumple zone. You know when you look at the sticker on this car on the dealers lot...safety stars are always missing. |

i wouldnt say stuck... its a minor set back, you can def update the front back and side... will cost a bit extra but IMO well worth it to have what you want...

I asked a local Body Shop for a quote just for the front conversion, with installation and paint job, 5k lol. 5k alone for front, then back and sides...might as well get the sport line from the start *facepalm And luxury line doesn’t have a lot of options when it comes to mods. Would anyone here know if F30 LCI standard front bumper front splitter would fit F36 standard front? In other words, is it the same or similar dimensions for f30 and f36? |

the conversion doesnt require any body modifications(almost 99% sure) its literally raising the car and taking off bunch screws and putting the new one in its place and securing it with screws. there are a few ppl on here who have done the full conversion... im not sure if they did it themselves or had a shop do it, but no way in HELL would anything like this even come close to 5k. the only expensive part of this process is the parts itself,(also paint)..sometimes u can get it painted already.....do you want to go OEM(obviously the most expensive) there are tons of aftermarket options as well, which should fit perfectly.... also check the classified to see what ppl are selling. also the f30 is a 335 if im not mistake and f36 is the 4 series GC, so they are not the same. a more fair or proper comparison would be f32 to f36. both being 4 series. plus, it doesnt have to happen ALL at once.. do it piece by piece..

I’m asking around now and it seems like it is what you said, that the parts should fit without much modification other than taking the bumper off and replacing it. Trying to find the right parts with paint and see if I can do it on my own. Whether F32 or F36, if standard bumper, there isn’t a lot of splitter choices...and almost 2/3 price of conversion to m sport bumper. And you’re right, it doesn’t need to happen all at once, I guess we all have the urge to tune our beloved rides to the way we like it asap > |

keep an eye out on the classified for ppl who got a new bumper they might be selling their old M bumper, lotta ppl upgrade to the m3/m4 style. also if you going to do these, you might want to look into m3/m4 "style" bumpers, just make sure the material isnt cheap and one that is prone to crack... you will be doing ton of research (well worth it in my opinion) installation if fairly simple, you just need to be able to jack up your car a few feet off the ground, and worse case if you are uncomfortable, labor for this type of stuff should NOT exceed a few hundred TOPS! they are literally just raising the car taking off 1000(lol) screws and putting the new bumper on and the 1000 screws back on. the part i feel which CAN cost the most is the painting, so as your searching see if you can find the parts already painted. GL! do what you need to do, but well thought out and patiently and you should have no regrets nor should u be wasting cash.

And nah, I'd prefer non OEM, even if I don't need to worry about money spent. There are just more aftermarket parts that are more creative and perhaps lesser priced. Frankly, I've been doing a lot research, which is why when I heard the price, I know it's outrageous. Checked M4 style bumpers, similar pricing. I guess what's left is really where I get the paint done. And if it's necessary to buy a car jack...or is it possible to rent one from Home Depot, would you know? Cause obviously the more you do it on your own, the more money one could save. Plus all the "time and fun" doing it LOL |

tbh im not sure if home depo does rent these types of tools, but def worth a phone call to them or even a google search. IF i had the space and time i would do it myself, its not really mechanical, just requires time and patience... and im sure there are tons of DYI videos online so you can follow along.

Or maybe wait until my bumper got some serious damage (which happened never) 😂 Having a car jack would be easier to install for sure I'm still pondering whether to just get a front splitter or getting a whole new bumper... |

After that then figure out what splitter you want to attach to it.
