It's about time...

chriseast18 · 06-18-2010, 10:42 AM

So after a 13 hour shift at work I decided it would be a good idea to ease off the brakes at the stop sign before the truck w/ trailer in front of me did. The truck easily defeated my front bumper. Huge crack with a few holes. I figured since I need a new bumper I might as well get an aftermarket one. Any good suggestions? I don't want to break the bank on this one. I'm hoping to at least do the install myself.

I assume that you have a E90? Is there any other damage besides the bumper?

M3 style.

get insurance to buy you whatever bumper you want.. most body shops will help you out on getting the one you need or have insurance cut you the check for the cost of ur bumper and then u pay the diff

Yeah it's an e90.

My deductible is a grand so no point in calling the insurance. I'm just gonna pay out of pocket.

Eh, what's the difference? I don't have an M3 so an authentic M3 bumper may be a problem..
