Does anyone have any info on how to shorten the bumpers on my 528i (80')

Thanks


Grassroots Motorsports had a series on 5-series project cars where they explained how to drill out the bumper shocks withou hurting yourself.

But for my car, I just used schedule 40 PVC pipe to really save some weight. While you're at it, take the steel bar off the back side of the bumper.
