Question for those have already done the conversion.
Is it true that this Suvneer E63 replica bumper will only work with the Suvneer E63 front lips(I think there are two styles) but not any E63 front lips because the bottom part is slightly different than the real E63 bumper?

Thanks.

Your fitment looks better than others. Did other not use the supports or something. Tempted to get this... but I want 100% fitment.

I have a JL-Motoring XY lip, it fits fine and looks snug, it just took a bit of filing on the middle lip part toward the bumper. Under pressure it was rubbing a bit on the bumper, but we're talking about MM here.

I bought all new OEM supports which helped line things up, but more importantly I did it myself and am very **** about things like that.

Cool... as long as there is ability to have it line up Im cool with that. I may try and do it myself as well and buy all the supports.

How hard was it to remove / install yourself?

Did you have it painted with them sampling from the car or just drop it off w paint code?

No problems removing and installing. I removed both fender liners to access the sliding bumper-to-fender clamp things, and then removed the six mounting bolts (four from the top and two from below), and pulled it right off. Of course you need to disconnect the foglights, turn signals, and outside temp sensor wiring, but no big deal.

I dropped off my bumper with the paint code and picked it up a couple of days later.

It's funny how it worked out.. I hit a bird and it bent the mesh so I took it off to bend back and once I saw it I kept it off because it gave it a more aggressive look IMO.

I have always had a issue with my driver side, even with my oem 55 bumper. I am not sure if its caused by the metal bracket that connects the fender and the bumper. I'm going to take it to the body shop to have them align it for me.
