My cars booked in the bodyshop in a couple of weeks time to have this work done and i just want to make sure i have all the parts. I currently have:

Lci bonnet
Lci m sport front bumper, grills and fogs and connectors
Lci m sport rear bumper and valance
Lci tailgate
Lci rear lights and wiring harness
lci headlights


My question is, is there anything else needed to fit these parts
I read somewhere i might need new bumper guides? Is that correct? And also new bellypan?

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Not changing the headlights?

[half Colin]

I thought the headlights were different.

[Mr Rauf]

For the e90 you don't have to change the headlights unless you want that perfect 11/10 fitment then get lci headlights too

Yes aorry ive got headlights. Just need to know if i need different bumper guides or undertrays or anything

They list different rear bumper guides for the M Sport bumper so you will need those for a proper fit. You may be able to use the existing ones but they must be different to have the two items.

Is it possible to fit the front and rear M Sport bumpers without the guides?

I fitted lci rear m sport bumper to my pre lci se no guides needed just a straight swop can't say about the front but my m sport bumper fitted fine without any new guides from what I remember but you will need the new msport fogs and new plugs for the fog lights to do it properly

The front you need new guides and undertray extension

There is no way to do it without the guides

You also need the hb4 foglight bulbs and connectors (cut and resolder plug inplace of SE HB3

No because the guides are what the bumpers attach to....

[muffking]

Guides are for the rear. The font screws in to the arches, under the bonnet and to the undertray - see my how too in my sig.

[Scaff™]

pretty confusing here lol. do i need front or rear guides or both. didnt think there was any guides on the front?? i know what undertray bit i need now so we are getting somewhere lol

Alright mate I've done front end lci conversion all I had was bonnet and bumper skin with grilles, everything works fine except I need new style bulb holders for fogs but from what I've seen if you doing rear lci bumper you need lci guides get them off eBay for like twenty quid otherwise just get a pre m slport rear bumper

Guides for the rear not the front.
The front just needs bonnet, bumper, grilles and undertray infill.

No sorry, but you can take this to BMW and ask for part 11 from an LCi M Sport.

[foey]

Looks fantastic, great work!

I want to do the rear end. I have a E90 M-Sport and wish to convert the rear end to LCI. Do I just need the clusters and the boot lid? I understand there is some coding for the LED rear lights - but is that it?

[Terryk]

nice jobs guys! well done for your taste!
