yea just phoned teddy :D Anyone know if coupe bumpers are different from saloon?

Afif... bugger.. i was asking Teddy that question to.

The coupe wont fit but of course you could get the M3 and custom shape it.. i am thinking of this myself. ;)

[BigFas]

Coupe bumpers won't fit a saloon and M3 bumpers will only fit an M3 unless you want to undertake major work

[Afif]

:( o well. Almost teddy... almost ;).

Some success across the sea but what you guys think? I regularly see some OEM M3 bumpers for sale in eBay and my god I was tempted after reading this thread!

Sweet.

Afif, buy the M3 bumper, bring it over to mine, and me and the EvoTechnik crew will fit it :) May take a while, but we'll get there ;)

[mysticm3]

I have M3 replica bumper made just for the normal E46s, no need to modify anything :)

[Afif]

Fas like your offer but i liek the mtech one more at the moment and teddy's one only costs like £20/30 quid more than the one up their.

Its the painting/mesh/fogs that brings the price right up!

true, i will keep my eyes open on eBay for oem M3 bumpers with fogs etc. From previous transactions, it looks as though the 150 mark is the going rate. Maybe another 50 quid for painting?

[Afif]

i thougth its around 150 without the mesh and fogs. Also painting is around 60-100 minumum i reckon.

[mysticm3]

I'll give it another day ro 2 before putting them on ebay

50 quid to paint the front bumper? lol ;)

it's best to find the bumpers with mesh and fogs already included.
fogs cost around £75 each so £150 a pair, the mesh cost £40 if i remembered.
i got my bumper for £170, painting cost me £100 which is the minimum cost i reckon for the bumper.
so total was £460.
also if you are going to get the rear bumper, make sure the diffuser is included before you bid, £80 just for the rear diffuser alone. :(

[Afif]

where u get the bumper for £170?! Also im pretty sure the fogs are £90 for the pair from bmw :S or was it one he was on about :eek:

[BigFas]

Mtech fogs are about £70 EACH. the fogs you have at the moment Afif are about £80 for the pair. It's worth keeping an eye out on Ebay and stock up on spares. Never know when they come in handy ;)

[rossi46]

just checked on my paypal, it was actually £136 for the front and £36 for the rear, all from ebay.
there is alot of M style fogs on ebay for sell from international such as germany.
but becareful!! although they are much cheaper there, the only problem is sending payment to them.
they only accepts wire transfer which will cost you another £10-12.

[Afif]

my dad goes germany every month. You reckon its worth asking him to go get them from a bmw dealer there? or are they going to be same price?

[mysticm3]

even E36 fogs cost 95 pounds each...how come E46 m-tech fogs are 90 for a pair???
