Well hopefully someone can use it!

Judging from the rear diffuser, I'll have to say the seller is incorrect and that will only fit 328i e92.
The rest will fit though.

Either replace the diffuser or cut a new hole? lol

Lulz whats wrong with fiberlgass? Got personal experience with it or you just basing you opinion on stuff you've heard like the typical uneducated keyboard warrior?

Anyway fiberglass can crack more easy and fitment might be off but a proper bodyshop can fit everything proper. CSL trunk is fiberglass at least most of them for such a cheap price it doesn't matter tbh.

A bumper is in a much lower spot than the trunk, and lets say u hit a loose piece of tire or part of cardboard on the freeway, your bumper will crack while the oem one is more flexible and has a better fitment, less work, and more durable, a fiberglass bumper wont give in when flexing, if it was 300 for the whole kit then yes it can be used as itll require a lot of work but still be cheaper, but not at $500. Thats my opinion and my experience with fiberglass.

Oh I see. Well I guess you can buy the rear and use it, front I guess can be dangerous if fiberglass does crack that easy. I have seen a couple of 1M fronts from fiberglass and these people are scraping often with no cracks.

This modern Black fiberglass is better than old one, but its still nowhere near the OEM material, for the fenders or trunk or even hook i can see this working out, but not bumpers, especially front ones.

Just to update this thread. Don't use fiberglass lol.

So last year I had a polyurethane mtech rear replica bought from a vendor put on my car. A week after getting it on later some girl hits me while parking cracking and trashing the bumper. Been looking for a mtech rear ever since everyone is out of stock.

Fast forward to this summer, I was pretty much given a free mtech rear made from fiberglass. Had my shop paint it, I know the guys at my shop so they hook it up with the paint and install. Damn thing wouldn't fit, they had to slightly trim the reinforcement bar to make it fit. Fits 8/10 slight gap on one side.

Moral of story don't use fiberglass lol.

People have been using fiberglass for car mods for many years. Its preference.
