E39 M5 Bumper Conversion Bracket?

[Lantz]

I purchased a aftermarket M5 bumper but it didn’t come with the support bracket that connects the bumper to the lower removable exhaust trim piece. Can you purchase that part separately or do you guys just fab a piece up?

I have been looking online and can’t seem to find anything.

You're referring to the rear bumper, correct? I installed a rear m5 bumper a few months ago and I believe I basically removed all the necessary brackets and hardware from the oem rear bumper and fitted it into the m5 one. Double check if you've taken all the necessary components you need to transfer over to the new bumper.

This is the part I’m talking about. My aftermarket bumper did not come with it molded on the bumper.

Okay, now I understand what you're talking about. I believe mine came attached. However, I don't remember if it was a seperate piece or molded to the bumper. Hopefully someone else can chime in or the seller can provide information.

I have an aftermarket bumper as well, and that piece is molded into the bumper.
