    Front M trim - FILLING INSERT?

    Hello, I'm updating my 540i. My question is, where do these "filling insert" go to?

    Can't tell much from that link, do you have an actual pic of the part?
    I don't remember that piece when I added the M5 bumper to my car.

    Those links still don't ring a bell. I didn't have those parts when I did the M bumper.

    Thanks for the link, HoZy. But it seems, that these inserts go to rear bumper?

    They might also go on the front, I've never looked.

    But I got those links from dumping the part number into google.

    Have a look mate.

    I think that's the rubber seal that goes between the lower fender liner(pork chop) and bump.

    Yes, those parts that HoZy linked to (Russian) clearly show they attach to the rear fender liner to take up the gap when you put an M5 rear bumper on a car that doesn't have M5 rear fender liners.

    Those parts are riveted on to the pork chop. Pretty sure they are not available separately.
