    ZHP OEM bumper on a 1999 E46 323i

    Hello Guys,

    I am new here so please be nice :p,
    I am building a drift car, it is a 323i 1999 e46 sedan, i don't like my front bumper, and i would love to install a ZHP OEM bumper.
    But before buying the bumper, i want to make sure that it will fit, because my car is not a facelift e46, and the ZHP 330i sedan comes only as a facelifted e46.

    Note: i don't want to face lift my car, i just want to change the front bumper cover, and keep the old fenders, headlights and hood.

    Thank you
    Michel

    itll fit, but you will need the correct side mounts for it, you will also need all the brake ducting and lower paneling if you want to do it properly.

    OEM ZHP bumpers are expensive, why would you want an OEM zhp bumper on a drift car? Also remember the oem bumper is only the bare cover. There are many other parts needed to have a complete bumper.
    Current:

    - 09 335i MSport, FBO.
    - 98 Euro M3, Estoril Blue
    - 04 M3, Carbon Black, 6 Speed Coupe
    - 06 M5, Black on Black, Full Leather.
    - 73 3.0CS, Tagia Green, 5 speed M30b35 converted

    I agree w/legoman67, you could try the dismantlers and see if they have the ZHP bumper complete (shocks/reinforce bar etc etc)
