Cement 782 Report post Posted October 29, 2023 Looking to get new front and rear bumpers (front is a bit trashed and rear is the shitty value line item) but can't seem to turn up much locally and overseas shipping is pricey ... pic attached 🤣 Looking for M3 style front (for non-M coupe) and mtech 2 or similar rear with diffuser insert. Where do people tend to look for such things ?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vass 702 Report post Posted October 29, 2023 In the same boat with my front bumper, all shagged so I'm looking at getting an M3-style bumper from this fella at some point - https://oscardistributors.com/collections/e46-bmw/products/e46-m3-style-bumper-to-suit-coupe-sedan?variant=40105130918022 Currently out of stock but should be more in soon. Claims to both fit coupes and sedans which I thought were different but decent value if true. No idea on the rears. Would be keen to know if there's better options out there ordering from overseas too. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle 1522 Report post Posted October 29, 2023 Sedan has plastic trim inserts around the car unlike coupes with just the pin like indent. That M3 would look ok on a coupe im guessing. Ive seen msport ones mixed up and once you see you cannot unsee, looks odd. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cement 782 Report post Posted October 29, 2023 Definitely not keen on anything with the snap in bump strip wotsit. @Vass assume the rear is wagon specific eh ? Might be a tricky one to get a hold of. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vass 702 Report post Posted October 30, 2023 Yeah the top of the touring bumper is cut back to accommodate the hatch. Not sure if there's much of a market for them so wouldn't imagine replacements are easy to come by. Quite like how the M3 style one fits on sedans/tourings. Saw one in the flesh when I was over in Europe a few months ago, would love that on mine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E30 325i Rag-Top 2915 Report post Posted April 11 Has Mr Body Kits in Aussie not got anything for E46? Still have shipping issue but AU is a lot cheaper, and often others are buying from them and you can split the freight. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
