perf 0 Report post Posted November 6, 2008 Ok, We have a 318iS 4 door that used to have a cheap fibreglass front bumper on it. To cut a long story short, the car got bogged down in mud and the bumper got ruined pulling it out. We need to buy a new one, and im not a fan of the bumper that most secondhand ones are: I found a place online that sells this one for $200 primered. Ive seen a few driving around town (cause E36s are rare as, ya know) and occasionally I spot this bumper which looks to be factory fitment, but not the M3 bumper, which is $550 new. Can anyone identify it? I managed to find a white one on trademe to get an example photo: I dont really know my beemer stuff, but afaik that isnt the M3 bumper, but is a factory bumper. Im probably wrong and its probably just the M3 one. cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark 178 Report post Posted November 6, 2008 That's just the M3 bumper without the black lower lip. The M-Sport version has slats instead of the mesh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve R 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2008 Does anyone know if the slats and mesh are interchangeable using genuine parts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
