Umnitza 1M Bumper

[Downeaster1]

Has anyone tried Umnitza's 1M bumper yet? I've bought all of my E36 and E39 bumpers from them and I've never had any issues.

Fender fog light grilles are clearly for 128. I wonder if it will fit the 135/msport kits.

Why do you say that?

[631twentyeighteye]

stock 128 fog lights(at least my year) wouldn't fit in those locations at all. does it come unpainted?

[ShocknAwe]

Because foglights wont fit on the 135 at all, unless of course this bumper fascia is enormous.

Looks like it comes unpainted, but they also have a painting service. I'm going to get it unpainted and let a local body shop do it for me.

Post pics! Looking forward to it.

M-o-d-bargains can get this too, not sure on price though. I just wish there was a version without the fog light cutouts and just full mesh in those corners.

[real1st]

I'm interested in this.

[631twentyeighteye]

If i got it i'd personally cut out the corners and just have openings, or figure out some custom mesh setup, i agree that the fogs look ugly.

hopeful to hear it has good fitment.

Yeah i didn't see it on their site. I want to order mine this week.

you can use the fog holes for a custom cooling set-up. just a thought

[ShocknAwe]

I wonder if the bumper is capable of hooking up to either the 135i or 1M cooling ducts. Is this a company that can actually answer questions like that?

I emailed them last night a little asking if they had a version without fog lights. I told them there would be a huge market for such a bumper since the next closest thing seems to be the Kerscher, for hundreds more. They said you could leave out the fog light mesh but there are supports in there for the fog lights so it would look pretty bad. I guess you could cut out the fog light supports but it would make sense for them to just offer another version, minus the fogs. They do seem to answer questions though. I got my reply around midnight eastern time, website says they are in California.

Aren't the 135s already wired for foglights, just have to connect the wiring of the fogs to the harness? Because when you enable the rear fogs, you can also enable front fogs and it displays on the dash.

Does anyone know if we need to mod the car(fenders) to fit this bumper? Is it widebody like the 1m or regular and bolt on?
Thanks

[DTR]

judging by the protrusion of the wheel archs looks like for 135/128 fitment(direct bolt on
)

[631twentyeighteye]

like i said above, i'd just dremel out the fog light mounts and leave it completely open.

[Maurzog]

This looks ok, glad to see more companies coming out with them, hopefully they will get rid of the fogs and offer a lip as well.

[Downeaster1]

Am i the only one who wants the fogs?

[gmane]

Anybody buy and install this yet? I'm curious to see how it looks/fits

[e90Nick]

I am curious about this bumper too. Also, for the option of "xenon" does that just mean headlights or is it fog lamps? Sorry if that is a dumb question... And I honestly wouldn't mind fogs. Why is everyone so against them?
