128 to 135 front bumper w/ fogs.

Just posted in the DIY section. Thought I'd prolong my 15 minutes of fame. The first person who posts why didn't you just get a 135...

2 leftover parts: Pressure Lip Seal Left and Right. Anyone have a clue where they go? Perhaps someone wouldn't mind taking a quick peek under their 135. Thanks.

That looks a lot like the little flaps that hang down under the front bumper on each side. I may be wrong??

Looks like he has those flaps on in the picture. At least the right side.

Why didn't you get the performance bumper?

I don't understand why is it wrong to do what you did!!!

At least in Europe you can order any model with the M package!!!

118i
118d(cabrio)
120d
123d
...
...
...


PS: I would love to have a 120d coupe with M package:thumbup:

Show as some more photos...

Did you only put the front Bumper or the hole M package?

What made you think people were saying it was wrong?

ulrichd's car has the rear M Sport bumper, the M side skirts, and the style 264 wheels as well. He pretty much did make a 125i M-Sportpaket car here in the States, which we cannot get.

Car looks great, and he doesn't have the worries of HPFP failures or turbos/wastegates faultering!! :headbang:

Exactly, the rest of the planet can order the "lesser" 1-series models with the M-sport package. Only in the US is the 128 treated like the redheaded stepchild.

I'll buy those from you if you don't need them. PM me if you're interested in doing so.
