1m replica bumper but having kidney grille problems

Beasted · 01-21-2016, 01:13 PM

So I've transformed my e88 135i and had fitted the complete 1m kit and full respray in yas Marina blue, but the kidney grilles don't fit properly? Has anyone heard of this and if so know where I can buy the correct ones!? Thanks

If you have an 1M bumper, I recommend calling your local BMW dealer and ordering 1M specific kidney grilles.

So it is different?

Obviously it is...particularly if your car is a different year model than the 1M production years. Go to realoem dot com and check the part numbers for both cars.

Nope, they are all the same.

Take the bumper back off, fit the kidneys, and then reinstall. You are tweaking the bumper somewhere. Post pics for more help.

Wow looks cool! I think it would look perfect with blackline LED tails and projector headlights
