Hello there,

Have been researching on here and FB groups to see if anyone has done this conversion. I am one of the few ppl that like the rear LCI on the G20. I have found alibaba/aliexpress sellers that would sell the rear bumper but unsure if its literally 3 pieces (LCI rear bumper, 2023+ bumper support?, and LCI diffuser)

I have watched the 330i M sport conversion video by KIES and saw there were more parts to it for a bumper swap.

TIA

Hello,

While I'm not sure if you are referring to an M - Sport 330i or not, but what I can confirm is that the M - Performance Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser requires the M - Performance Rear Trim - (aka: The Rear Bumper) and I believe some adhesives as well!

I'm sure you can find someone who has done on it on here, but I would also encourage you to look at the X3/X4 forum - There I saw someone convert the rear of their X3 from: PRE-LCI X3 - xDrive30i --> LCI X3 - xDrive30i!

A few things I want you to keep in mind if you are planning to do this project:
1. Does your vehicle have the Driver Assistance Professional Package?
2. Does your vehicle have the Parking Assistance Package, which enables your 3 to park itself via the Parking Assistant?
3. Does your vehicle have the Comfort Access - "Kick to Open/Close the Tailgate"?
- I'm not sure if the M - Performance Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser allows you to continue using your foot to open/close the tailgate and I just wanted to make sure you do your research lol

I ask because some bumpers are specific to the equipment on the car (e.g., Vehicle is M - Sport, WITH Parking Assistant, without Driver Assistance Professional will have a specific bumper number - I hope that makes sense?) and so I wanted to make sure you get the right part numbers!

Down below is a link to "getBMWparts.com" and here you can find more information on M - Performance Parts for the G20 3's!
NOTE: getBMWparts are well-known all throughout these forums and so many BMW drivers, like myself, have used their services before in the past and their part prices are generally cheaper than buying it from the dealer and they are pretty straightforward!

LINK to the instructions for installing the M - Performance Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser, what all is needed for the installation, and how long it'll take
NOTE: While the instructions are not specific to PRE-LCI --> LCI conversions, but I figured it couldn't hurt to use it as a reference

Lastly, you made me do this, but here is a link to one of the first threads that I made when I joined the BMW forums - I used to drive a 2015 BMW X1 - sDrive28i (I named him "Elliot") and I converted the rear bumper on my "no line" X1 to that of the "xLine" X1's hahaha

PS - I encourage you to scroll through the M3 forums, as BMW drivers over there be modifying their cars all the time! lol
