1M rear bumper for 135i!

[xShadows]

Came across this today when I was searching for a new rear bumper. This is a poly bumper, not the Kerscher fiberglass one. I got a good deal on it since I'm the first one to order it. I'll let you all know how it fits and I'll make sure to take a ton of pictures!

I saw this today as well. Might be a good option for those wanting the 1M look to compliment the 1M replica front bumper. subscribed!

Nice, this could be a badass option for a rear quad exhaust etc.

[methodz]

Very nice! I noticed the 1M style front bumper is on sale for $399 as well! Does anyone have experience with the fitment from this retailer? Good find OP

[Robmaster]

nice, but they should make a diffusor without the quad cutouts for the OEM 135i exhaust system.

The bumper is made in Taiwan, same company that made the replicate 1M front bumper with the round fog lights.

Can get one relatively cheaply, since I am so close by. Might get one to try out and arrange a buck order for the US fans.

What do you think?

I like it, 1m front and rear replica for under $1,000 shipped then paint, hows fitment is the Question

I think it looks odd without the wide flared fenders. Other than being proportionally weird, it looks good.

Yea it does look a little weird proportionally. Polyurethane is definitely the way to go but whose gonna take the first dive to check the fit haha. Hopefully they'll make the fenders

I did, and it's on the way right now. I'll update this thread as well as my build thread when it arrives and I get the paint / quad exhaust done.

why do you guys insist on ruining your 128s and 135s with faux 1M parts?

the 1er looks great as is....no need to make it look weird and aftermarket. The 1M bits look fine on the 1M because it's more out of functionality to fit the wider fenders. They looks completely dysfunctional on non-widened 1ers, IMO.

Pinched looking would be the phrase I would use. Too many vents and folds in a small space.

This. So much sick of seeing M3 rep bumpers on 3 Series or Einsers with the 1 M bumper. It does not make it go faster (lol) nor look better than stock M Sport or Performance (which is just pure awesome).

What I'd really like to do is a OE style widebody with the BMWP Tii style front bumper. Saw a mockup of it once where I think someone photoshopped the Tii front bumper to a 1M. Looked amazing.

Lacking that, its either OEM 1M panels or doing the rocket bunny thing. I'd love to see more options, especially ones that don't involve thousands in unnecessary parts.

Check that: here's the picture I was talking about.


Looking at it again, it looks like it was real. Some sort of custom fiber-glassed Frankenstein monster.

I've always loved the BMWP front but since getting an M-sport front bumper I've had my doubts as to which one looks better. With that said, I'm not quite sure if the BMWP front would work with a ppk2 car.

Also, those seats are beautiful! One day, I'll get my butt on a pair of those seats.

That bumper is part of the BMWP kit, as is PPK2. It will work together.

That was what I thought but BMW's website (shopbmwusa.com) says otherwise. The bumper is not offered for a 135is (basically a ppk2 car). I guess BMW's site isn't the be all and end all given how they do not offer the BMWP rear calipers on their site for 135i but it actually does work on a 135i (because AFAIK they're identical other than the obvious aesthetics).

the bmw performance bumper will infact fit a 135is no problem.

That's the Dörr Motorsport 135i. Real deal.

Finally got it! Quality looks OEM. Diffusor is painted like a dark grey and has been clear coated already. It's going to look good!

[gavbo]

Excellent!! Can't wait to see it mounted, keep us posted
