Had a buddy of mine make a hybrid custom front bumper for my 01 740 that incorporates the e39 m5 look. Will follow up with more pictures after it gets sprayed.

Got the bumper from the shop, unfortunately it wasn’t ready to spray, as there are some dimples in the primer. So my buddy up here in Oregon is fixing the dimples and re-priming it.

Dang, that paint job looks really good, especially the clear. Your friend is a good painter! I can't wait to see it mounted on the car.

They are working on a quote to make one and ship to me too. Love it, Ryan and thanks so much for sharing with me all along on IG!

No problem! Glad I can share this knowledge with you! I bet you he could replicate the rear M5 bumper for your car as well! I’m sure yours will come out better than mine since my hybrid bumper was the first one he tried. I ended up having a local body shop in my area re-sanding it and re-priming it so it was ready to get painted. Long process, but well worth the wait!
