E46 M3 Bumpers
I do not know if this subject has been broached before. So educate me on E46 M3 bumpers. For starters correct me if I'm wrong.
I noticed there are different types of M3 bumpers. Depending of production year? Some of them have the gap for fog lights and others have just the intake on the left side. There may be other style? Do either of the M3 bumpers a direct fit to our ZHPs or other E46s? I noted that the front blade/splitter for the ZHP seems to be larger than the M3? Again, I could be mistaken. Advanced aging eyes don't you know.
Have any of you guys done this replacement? Please provide a few pics. I also noticed that there are also aftermarket bumpers available. How's the quality of the after markets? Any specific brand? I would assume the gauge of the abs plastic would be thinner? Anything else to look for prior to bumper replacement?
Thanks.
