In Reply to: Re: WANTED: euro bumpers/M5 chin spoiler/ rim (14" posted by ieracer on April 02, 2001 at 18:53:38:

Euro M5's came with just a lower chin spoiler that attached to the bottom of the valance. It will even attach to the US valance, but it might look funny with the US bumpers. The M535i is the one that came with the M-Tech body kit with the fiberglass front and rear covers and skirts. The Euro bumpers come with either a chrome finish or primed to be painted body color as they were on the M5. The M5 spoiler runs about $400 new and the bumpers cost about $1200 front and rear with the appropriate lights and valances, so figure on about half that for used stuff if you can find it.

Good luck ,

That bumper is not avalible in m5 black you must buy a m-tecnik frt end & body kit to make it work.I have euro bumpers w/brackets but they are crome.They need striping & repair if you are trying to convert.You will also need light kits.This is also avalible ready to paint if you want.

I own a 1988 535is and am in need of:

- black euro bumpers
- black M5 chin spoiler (cowl, or whatever you want to call it.)
- bmw brand name 14" mesh rim (as a spare)
