kerscher 1m style rear bumper exhaust question

sorry if this has been answered but i keep finding conflicting answers and would prefer to get an answer from someone who has this rear bumper on their car

i plan on doing the 1m exhaust conversion and i understand what needs to be done - battery tray etc.

what i need to know is if the kerscher 1m rep will accommodate the 1m quad exhaust fitments.

ive searched the threads and most people say yes it will but by looking at the pictures attatched i feel the replica has an exhaust that is spread further apart from each other.


thanks in advance gents

Looks pretty far off to me. I don't think they really market it as a replica as much of a 1M "look". I assume the kerscher rear will work with stock location exhaust on the 135i which is probably the selling point to them. You could just buy a 135i dual exhaust and it'll work instead of the work needed to run a real 1M exhaust.

For me, I'd stay away from it because it's fiberglass. I just can't do bumpers in fiberglass anymore. I've had awful experiences.

Look into the RW Carbon bumper. Made from same material as OE, with a removable diffuser.

Was thinking about getting it myself when faced with need to buy a new bumper, but decided against it as ultimately it still looks strange without the wide rear quarters.

I've got an amazing exhaust guy that's gonna do a custom setup for me. We're removing the muffler and splitting the piping from back there so that it goes to either side of the battery tray
