You can use the f32 bumper if you also change to the 4 series headlights.

I like that. However i would have thought the bonnet and side fenders would also need replacing. Similar to the m3 as it has slightly different headlight design and so all the panels that meet the headlights need to be changed

Im curious if the mounting points line up so its a easy swap. Or im wondering it requires extra bits and bobs from the f32 to mount If this just needs headlights then this is no different to a m3 style bumper upgrade. Headlights being the only additional cost |

right so real OEM states that the part numbers for the hood on a F30, F32 and F36 is the same #41007290944. Which is great
However part numbers for the side fenders are different for F30, F32 and F36. Even between the f32 and F36 its a different part number. I would have though they would be the same between a f32 and a f36 at least That guy doesn't mention changing the side fenders. im skeptical. |

Hmmm if thats the case its not a simple job and just got a lot expensive.
So the one guy says welding and another guy says the opposite and they both have done the same f32 retrofit. |

As for me I'm sold on this one. My plan is to use: F32 headlights F32 bumper F80 fenders (already figured out how to line up the fender to bumper) F30 hood. I've found custom 2" flares for the rear and I'm already working on a custom rear bumper. So at the end it's a widebody f30 but not an f80 clone. |

Keep us posted how you make the side fenders work. The fenders is the last piece of the puzzle. |

Simply put the 4 series is a wider car than 3 series!
You will need fenders, hood, lights grills, bumper and possibly the radiator support to align everything up. If you want that look get the new M3 rep bumpers they have with wider side vents. Looks close to it and fits well.
