Hello guys, I unfortunate have a nonsport e350 and I've been looking to do some style into the car and have no luck on finding a front lip for the non-sport bumper.

If any of you guys have any links, please link me. I try to avoid getting a sport bumper the best I can.

Thanks.

 

Did you actually want a sport model in the first place? Hopefully you don't have to replace the bumpers

 

Yes, I did. This is for the wife, but I would like to do some mods on it. Found a prime sports bumper with asking paint for roughly 600$. Think I will have to go that route because seems like not much lips are made for non-sport bumper. Darn it.

 

All I can say is that your quad fog lamps look awesome. Wish I had those.

 

Which ones do you have? I forget.....

 

I have the 2014 facelifted version which unfortunately doesn't have any fog lights at all. I know it's mostly cosmetic, .... but I like having them .

 

So I found this, that i'm having an eye at. I know it comes with headlights washer which mine didn't but I could always cover that. The asking price is

325$
100$shipping
+170 for the paint I want.

What do you guys think?

And I would want to keep the quad lights too but I think the spacing on the ports is larger so I probably have to keep my old ones and do some customization?

: D

 

***UPDATE* I finally did the conversion!

After almost two months looking for the right OEM for my conversion from luxury front bumper into sports, I finally found all the need.

Used White Bumper OEM off Ebay with small scratches and two hair line crack for 448$.




Found the left side sport OEM quad fog light off ebay for 150$. (very hard to find)
Then found the other pair for the same price, from an offer. He was asking 180$. (very hard to find) (Both: 300$)



The lower OEM sport mesh grille with a crack on one of the tabs but I plastic welded it together. 81.99$ (hard to find)



Dropped it off at a FORD dealership to repair the bumper, sand, and paint for 574.24$.

TOTAL: 1,404.23$

First the air intake ducts had to come out.
Second, the front grille.





Third, remove the guard underneath the bumper, and the wheel guards to get the screws holding on the side of the bumper and to release the tabs holding the bottom of the bumper.

Fourth, removed two of the front wheels to remove the mud guards to get more clearance on the side tabs of the bumper.



Fifth, disconnect the fog lights and the side markers and bumper should drop.


Unlike my E36 where it just four bolts in the front for the bumper to come off. I had to be very careful not to break anything. There ARE hidden tabs everywhere, lol. Good thing, I didn't break anything at all. I recommend you to take your time and not to use any strength at all. Best tools would be two flat heads to pop them tabs out : D




After close to three hours, it finally came off nice and clean. Then it took me around 30mins to put the new one in. The new bumper didn't come with the front tow cover and the side markers so i had to salvaged the old ones. One issue I had was the lower bumper doesn't snap back into the lower mud guard because the sport bumper sits lower than the stock OEM luxury version. Besides, everything lined up perfectly, no gap. Glad I went with the OEM stuffs than aftermarket ****. Any questions, please ask, I will explain it in details when i'm not so lazy tonight. Or if anyone really going to do the same conversion, feel free to ask me, thanks.

 

Looks great!! Nice job on the conversion. Do you plan on changing the side skirts and grill to sport as well ?

 

This thread started with a search for a front lip for a non sport bumper and turned into a front end conversion! Very nicely done OP your car looks great.
