A local seller has decided not to use a factory M5 front and rear bumper which is already primered and ready for painting. He is willing to sell the bumpers seperately to me. Should I purchase this and put it on my 2001 540it wagon? I know the front bumper should fit perfectly but does anyone know if my factory fog lights will fit into the factory M5 bumper?

Also should I or shouldn't I get the rear bumper? Since my factory rear bumper has a cutout for the single exhaust tip, do you think it will look better with the matching M5 rear bumper or would it look stupid if I kept the factory 540it rear bumper and changed just the front to the M5 bumper? :help :confused

I just bought a 540it, and i would love to get input on this as well. Has anyone done this on a touring? Pics, advice, do's/don'ts, cost welcome. Thanks

I say...go for it. Buy them, before you paint, try to fit them to see if all goes well, and see how it looks. The front will look wonderful. If the rear looks like garbage, sell it. If not, paint them, and enjoy your uniqueness. It's as easy as that.

I don't know about the front fogs, but I'm sure M5 fogs can be purchased. No biggy there either.
