Anyway to fix the front bumper?

Hi all. I had a front NA style number plate cover installed when I got the car. When I removed it to get a clean front look it left two random black holes in the gloss black plastic trim on the bumper. Is there any way to fix this?

Are there any replacement pieces for this or would I have to change the bumper?

That's a bummer! Usually we would suggest bumper plugs but those holes are much larger then the normal screw holes. Maybe we need to make a CF cover for that section.

Do you guys have a CF front section? I’ve only seen it for the air intakes.

We do not, but it might be smart to come out with one.

Part number you're looking for is 51115A63969. Not sure if the PDC holes come pre drilled, but I had to order a new rear diffuser, and the holes were not drilled. The front bumper has to be removed to install this.

Thanks so much! I’ll order it in. The website shows the PDC holes so hopefully they come pre-drilled. I can’t imagine bmw drills each one of them instead of moulding the holes from the factory.

I was surprised that the holes weren't pre-drilled. For what it's worth, the photo in the rear diffuser diagram did show the holes open but arrived closed.

Expect them to come closed, and if they come open, it's a nice bonus. You can use a step drill to open the holes yourself if you plan on DIY'ing this job.

Just got it! Thankfully it has the pre drilled holes.
