    You get an e39 m-tech (M5) bumper cut off upper side/scalp,
    then cut the leftover lip in half and mount it onto your own E38 bumper, then build up the gap with some plastic and bondo and go on...

    pretty close. I used carbon fiber and modified acrylic resin. Also used a carbon fiber two part to adhere the 3 pieces together. No bondo used to smooth it up. It's a skim coat material body shops use. The guy that painted it sold me some stuff to smooth the face up. I need to pull it off and rebuild it. I've got acouple tiny cracks here and there from age. But 5-6 years isn't bad for hand made.

    No way. You have the uber rare "raindrops" on the car. Those are so very rare that we don't see them often. Good luck getting them off. Otherwise yep, looks like alk the others.
    Lets get the party started before it's my bedtime.
