1M rear bumper carrier fitment

Hey All,

I've recently installed the 1M battery and exhaust on my car,
One issue I ran into was the bumper carrier not having the correct hooks for the exhaust and welded the existing hooks in place for those.

As of right now everything is great but I am looking to buy another exhaust and while I was looking I wanted to know if the 1M bumper carrier fits with a 1M style rear bumper.

Thanks in advance

The rear bumper carrier is identical on the 135i and the 1m with the exception of the location of the muffler hanger.
I simply welded 2 hangers to my 135i bumper when I did my widebody conversion

Yeah I tried getting it welded but everywhere I go here they said they couldn't weld on the carrier and instead I have bolts that are super close to the diffuser which is burning it.
Which is the reason why I was thinking about getting the 1M bumper carrier.

1M bumper carrier will fit the 1M style bumper just fine. The question is will the diffuser align up correctly with the exhaust?
