Question on Fog lights delete (F32/F33-M bumper)

Hey guys !

I know this topic has discussed many times earlier but i could't find for F32/F33. So for those who have deleted their fog lights, i wanna know if there's anything else involved other than below steps for the grill replacement.

1- Remove the fog light housing
2- Remove the fog light support
3- Replace the grill
4- Code the fog light warning

Any help would be appreciated.

You need to order new parts to fit

1. Left side vent cover
2. Right side vent cover
3. Vent bracket support left
4. Vent bracket support right
5. A small piece rubber cover for left
6. A small piece rubber cover for right

Or you could do a money wise way
3 and 4 using the oem fog light support and cut it
5-6 are not really needed but fog light delete will make both sides hollow and empty you can see right through it

Hi doumyouji

First, i wanna thank you for your support on this
Just to be clear,i have to replace my Fog light bracket and grill with the below items:

1-Fog light grill-Left (51118056493)
2 Fog light grill-Right (51118056494)
3-Fog light Bracket-Left (51118054579)
3-Fog light Bracket-Right (51118054580)

Instead of making a custom piece of rubber to cover the inner side of the grill, can i use the OEM grill trim as the below items ?

Trim grill -Right (51118054550)
Trim grill - Left (51118054549)

Last thing, did you use (ESYS) to code the fog light warning ?

Thanks

@Wiz992

Trim grills 550/549 are redundant
There is a piece of plastic "vent" for additional transmission cooler for both sides.
Since your car doesn't have that equipment simply go with 1 to 4 items and you are fine.

I'm using BimmerCode for a piece of mind
