Does anyone know of anyone who sells the brakets to instal yhe euro bumpers. It's time to instal mine :D but I was just wondering what is involved in it first. Have to decide wether or not it is in my skill level. Anybody have a step by step for this. Thanks in advance for any help.

I dont think anyone sells the correct brackets for us. They will need to be modified for the front and you will have to fab the rears. If you buy the fronts from BavAuto all you will have to do is notch a section and relocate the 2 mounting holes a little farther back, then once it is mounted without the bumper on you can use a big ass cresent wrench and twist the brackets a tad to have them line up, really not that big of a job but does take some common sence and a steady hand.

The rears are actually simple, take some metal stock and bend to an L shape, drill some holes and mount.

I can get some pix if I have them lying around. This is one of those things were you just figure it out as you go, people have done this many different ways. Get the materials and go from there, ask questions as you move along and we can help you out. It wont get done unless you do the effort.

Good Luck!

Hey CJ thanks for the tips man doesnt sound to difficult. I just didn't understand what you meant here. Can I buy something from bavauto for the install or am I supposed to pick something up for the front bumper. Thanks

I meant just to buy the front bumper mounts from them, if your not going to buy the whole kit from them or if you dont already have them. I believe they are something like $20. Or you can just buy some 3/16" steel stock
