i am wanting to fit the m sport kit to mine but haven't got round to it yet, what parts were needed to fit the kit do the bumpers fit on the existing brackets. i have a sport model and the msport i wanted was 4k more than i could stretch to at the time.
i have changed my front brakes to the 335i 4 pots and left the rears standard, changed the grill to piano black and the wheels are the msport. Glad i am not the only one to want to do this. massive list of things left to change but i have the car for a while so don't need to rush.

Go on do it mate .

I used Flebay to buy all my parts coz I wanted to fit OEM parts , don't buy M Sport kit from eBay from seller as been told fitment not good , M Sport bumpers will fit straight on just need to buy few bits which altogether less than £100 mate.

There are few cheap bumpers and side skirts on sale and good price too , I bought all front grill New coz didn't want to fit old ones.

Let's know when you get round to it and if need any help mate

Gotcha mine only has business nav I'm not so bothered about the bigger screen just the larger I drive button would be nice

Just not sure if it's just a straight swap over with not having the pro screen

i wouldn't have thought that you don't have Pro nav screen as your car has everything else mate

Now hold on before you judge me, this is what i did for Large iDrive

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Replacemen...QAAOSwB09YSYvL

Proper way doing it was too expensive and i had already loads of mods to do But you never know might get done after all done

This is what i am thinking to do .

Gloss black ---- Rear diffuser
Gloss black ---- side blades
Gloss black ---- front bottom lip
colour match ---- front fins

But i have seen matching colour side blades and front bottom lip .

All suggestions appreciated

what you need to keep in mind that if you buy battered parts then you will be paying more for repairing and painting .

just keep looking on flebay and you will come across , i paid less than £200 for both bumper without a single scratch on them which was very lucky so don't be paying over the odd for parts mate.
