    Excellent video,very clear explanations and not too much talking like most of the youtubers do.I have 1 question,the bumper is not really secured with anything,right?,just pressed on,so it would be very easy to steal or fall while driving.

      @ArcticAutoStyling  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have it connected to the under tray and then a bolt on each corner connecting to the fenders.
      I’ve had the bumper on the car daily driven since this video was made and no issue
      For a Rep non oem bumper it fits good !

    hey man I really appreciate if you reply to this, I have a non m3 e46 and am looking to buy a m3 bumper but I'm stuck between buying a replica one or an oem one. Does the poem one fit perfectly compared to other reps.

    • @ArcticAutoStyling
      @ArcticAutoStyling  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The issue with oem m3 bumpers is on the m3 they have wider fenders so it won’t properly fit on a non m model unless you buy the m3 fenders along with it
      For our models the rep bumpers will give you the best fitment
      Just try to make sure you find a reputable website or auto shop to buy it from and you should have any issues

    • @ArcticAutoStyling
      @ArcticAutoStyling  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The authentic m3 side skirts should fit but the rear you will have to buy a conversion bumper as the rear quarter panel on an m3 is wider than a non m
      The trunk I would suggest getting the CSL carbon trunk
      I have a video on the install
      But to my knowledge only the oem bumpers are the only part that won’t fit a non m
      Everything else is interchangeable
