I was always under the impression the E39 guys did NOT do it for intake purposes but rather brake cooling. And if that's what you're looking to do, you really need to take the bumper off and see how you'd route the hoses as clearance can be really tight. Another thing to keep in mind is that if you're running wide rubbers up front, chances are you'll burn through any 3" hose so you may want to design a "two-piece" system with flanges. You have 1 set of hoses from bumper to some mid section. And then use flanges to connect the 2nd set of hoses from mid section to backing plate, else you'll spend a lot of money replacing the entire hose each time you burn through it. That's how I did on my Z4 before upgrading to a BBK.
If you are doing this for intake, I think you're better off just getting an aftermarket intake. Doesn't seem worth chopping up your bumper for this type of mod.
