it's a buyer's market on ebay sometimes they go for 30 quid and still no one buys, sometime it can go up to 200 if the seller is lucky.

Teddy I can assure you they don't go for £30!

Even £200 is at the lower end of the price band for a Sport bumper with all the fixtures/fogs etc.

I saw a front bumper go for £320 a few days ago on ebay! Thats way too much to pay but it must have been the right colour for someone?

Bumper skin can be bought at a bargain but you need all the fittings, brake ducts, mounts, fog lamps etc which will all add up. Fog lamps cost the most.

I would budget for £300 including painting and fitting.

Lee you should get around £250 - £300. People may pay more if its already painted in their desired colour

I have one painted for sale in Estoril blue without fogs/mesh but not sure whether it's from a coupe or saloon. Is there anyway to find out?

Afif

Black Sabbath said that the fitting is the same cos his came off a coupe [hmm.

Afif, saloon and coupe bumpers are not the same. They have different part numbers and shape!

Whether you can modify either to fit a saloon and coupe is a different matter?

as long as the fixing points are the same and they share the same brackets then it should not be a problem to fit one from a coupe. BMW dealer said Clubsport splitters wouldn't fit saloon M-tech bumper, is it true? LMAO [bang

hmmmm think we need to try switchin bumpers with sumone with a coupe to try it out [ok.

Teddy to my knowledge that is true. The 2 bumpers side by side do look different. My mate is having a saloon one fitted this afternoon and it does look slightly less deeper than the coupe.

CS splitters do fit the saloon.

Afif - when i eventually decide on a front bumper ill come down and try my M-tech out on yours. ;)

Checked my mates saloon sport bumper going on, and it IS different to the coupe so you need to get one specific for your car ie: a coupe sport bumper for a coupe and saloon sport bumper for a saloon.
