M sport conversion from ebay

For anyone that’s done the M sport conversion through ebay as opposed to buying the kit, after you got the front & rear bumper by themselves where did you buy the rest of the things needed? The biggest parts being the mesh that covers the holes but also the air ducts if they’re even required? what do you think?

For reference, this is the back bumper in my cart - https://www.ebay.com/itm/37426577232...mis&media=COPY
and the front bumper - https://www.ebay.com/itm/37254404441...mis&media=COPY

Also is there any way to know if my car has headlight washers? Any code i can see from the bmw decoder?

Headlight washers are a raised square in front of each headlamp activated with the screen washers

I bought a whole kit from eBay for the front bumper that came with all the inserts, PDC holes, and headlight washers. I believe I payed $350+ (I can't remember exactly, this was 4 years ago.)

Has it sprayed fluid all over your hood after you used the washers a couple of pulls. Its VERY apparent if you have the washers.

Oh man, that’s soo much more expensive than just the 180$ for the bumper alone! But if i can’t find the supporting pieces anywhere else i’ll have to just buy this kit, i appreciate it. It’s just tough cause i want to do the back bumper too and it’ll start getting real expensive in one go..

I’m just confused cause like there’s a good amount of people who have bought these standalone bumpers so it’s like what do they do when they get it without any of the pieces? I still have hope there’s a cheaper way, really looking to save money here

I feel ya man. When I bought mine, the price was $380 but that was during COVID.

The fitment of that bumper was excellent and the packaging was perfect. I'll attach a photo of my car with the bumper on it.

That bumper is also EURO spec so it doesn't have the US sidemarker slots which is a nice touch. Name:  F30 PHOTO.jpg

It does look really nice, wow. Looks so much nicer on our black cars without the chrome strips. So far still looking for cheaper but thanks a lot!
