Apparently, the are like stock, even the lip is removable. It's supposed to be an OEM replacement. No direct experience though ... stupid cheap price!

I bought the front and rear m3 bumper. Quality is great! Front bumper is even primed. The shipping is wrong on the website though it was $90 to ship both of my bumpers but still the best price I have ever seen! They are being painted right now along with the whole car getting a repaint I am picking it up on Tuesday. I test fitted them first and they fit great.

That is crazy cheap. I don't have firsthand experience with this exact part, but past experience tells me to not expect a polypropylene part to fit as perfect as stock.

Awesome, thanks for chiming in. I'm picking up one as soon as there in stock. I'll report back on my experience with them as well.

I hope you are having the body shop prep that bumper E36 328is. Just because it says it's primed doesn't mean jack. If they dont prep it WILL peel... and have the E39 bumper to prove it.

Mine should be here next week.

To prep primed paint you scuff with fine sand paper then clean with rag of alcohol/water. then you CAN paint your own primer or not....it helps otherwise it may look like the color isnt as full as it should be.
