E85 Aero front bumper

I am putting my Aero bumper up for sale as I do not have the space to store it. I can see no others for sale in the UK currently and just one on the continent at 600 euro. I know these come up very rarely, but this one does have some issues, so please read on.

This then is an original BMW Aero front bumper in sterling grey, complete with lower grills, but no fog lights or kidney grills. It was on my Zed when I bought it two years ago and has just been removed in favour of a freshly resprayed standard bumper as I find the styling more to my taste.

The issues mentioned then (see photos also) are a poor quality filler repair to the top edge (filler front and back), some scratches and chips on the underside, a minor filler (?) split on the n/s arch and few of the inevitable stone chips. Some of clips which hold the kidney grills in are also damaged. It looks like these are separate frames which might be possible to replace.

I am offering the bumper for sale as it is for £350, probably as cheap as you’re ever likely to find one, if you can find one at all, for you to have the repairs done when you get it resprayed to your own colour requirements. There may be an option for me to get it repaired and leave it in primer for your paint shop to colour and lacquer, but clearly the price would need to increase. Something we can discuss if you’re genuinely interested. With such a big item collection would be preferred (from Taunton, Somerset, social distancing obviously) but I can discuss options with a potential buyer.

SOLD - PAID FOR, PENDING COLLECTION

This is not for sale anywhere else.

I'd be surprised if this is still for sale by the end of the day. Fitted one to my old E85 3.0 and I thought it was a vast improvement over standard.

Not really an e86 bumper as they changed the fog lights, but I have seen one coupe with an aero before! :thumbsup:
GLWTS. Kind-of surprised it's not gone already!
 
Any photos of it on the car?

& I have a facelift will this fit?

I just need to make a call on a M front bumper so will get back to you today! :D

I would assume (but cannot confirm) that it will fit a facelift car. The standard pre and post facelift bumpers are interchangeable, albeit with different fog lights.

Think its as per the pics mate, will come with the bottom grille. The front BMW badge, kidney grilles and the fog lights aren't included AFAIK :)
 
That’s correct Kis. Lower grills included, but not kidney grills or fog lights as they were swapped over to my other bumper.

Also included are the headlight washer covers, towing eye socket cover and front badge.
 
I'm in then! :thumbsup:

I will arrange a courier to collect as I'm in Norwich.

I will private message you tomorrow AM and sort out payment etc.

Thank you!

Ok, that’s great. Look forward to your PM to discuss/exchange details.
 
[ref]jock156[/ref], you do realise that just because it says 'aero' it won't stop your hardtop flying off on the A47? :poke: :rofl:
