Front is bolt on.

Back requires professional modification to fit.

Thank you !

I got the information I needed... so I'm going le it down for the moment. To much modification for my car. I want to keep it original. My 318i 1984 is completely original. With only 80 000 kilometers, I changed tired and muffler, that's it ! I never changed the bad brake and I check it, they are good for the summer.

So I thought changed bumper but only if it was possible to make it bolt on and without change the valence and onther modifs. Everybody tell me that I have to keep this car completely original.

I will continue to visit your forum, it is very interesting. Good job !!! And is good to practice my english...


Thank and best regards.

you might consider using the shorter eurp metal bumpers. They should just bolt on.

And what to you think about tucked bumpers ??? It seem good alternative and is very cheap $$$...

Any comments will be appreciate !
