M3 STYLE CONVERSION PT. 1 // FRONT BUMPER

[@TheMateusxs]

I would pick the OEM emblem, stay classy

[@albangerguri99]

If you really wanna finish the job you should also install the m3 style mirrors

[@972821372]

I like the normal emblem the best but the carbon fiber one doesn’t look bad

[@JoshNTurboJosh]

I love that bumper. I put it on my Infiniti!!!

[@edwardofrias8220]

Brother, this is such a great video. You have no idea how much stress you just took off my back. You showed me how to eat this elephant. I’ll shout you out when I am done. Stay tuned!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Awesome video! Car is looking awesome 🤙🏼

[@JDCarsChannel]

Thanks man! Awesome kit!

[@kevinofeville]

What if you need a front license plate?

[@anthonycarlucci7464]

Emblem should be 100% up to you and red accents go well together with dark colors 💪🏼

[@nivxz]

i just took my bumper off today to do some work and it was all 8 mm with the t-style bolts on top

[@giovannicarrasco147]

Just ordered this along with some spyder smoked headlights. Gonna be fun putting it all together

[@dariocalderon8056]

Those wheel look meaty! Car looks totally different!

[@JDCarsChannel]

Thanks man!

[@justinrobert6573]

P.S. Any other emblem other than factory is RICE.

[@57RollsRoycePhantom]

Justin Slawek why’s that?

[@JDCarsChannel]

Hahahah

[@brandonperkins1935]

Excellent video ! You saved me lots of time and it literally took me about an hour and a half to install everything. Thank you so much for this video bro 🙏🏽

Carbon fiber with black!! They're sick asf

[@blessing9959]

Carbon fibre emblem fo sure!👌🏽

[@MALI-lw2sn]

When you left the fog cables like that.. Do u have any lights on dashboard?

[@tybmw9159]

I have the silver/black cf overlays on my OEMs. If you're getting new emblems I'd go with that color scheme

[@vrpinky22]

How was your air ducts lining up for this new bumper? Do you need OEM Msport ones or they lined up good with airflow ?

[@bigshooTer39]

The brackets which can be seen behind your air damns, were there any cuts in the plastic. Mine looks exactly like this but it seems that there was an additional plastic reinforcement that someone removed.

[@Supremepikachu]

I'v never hurt my hands and fingers so bad with a chaotic bumper swap like this. Now i'm having issues getting the bottom holes lined up, there is no way i have to pull the bumper back to then screw in the screws.

[@Tayf32m4style]

Hey man I'm having the same issue. Did you figure it out then how to line up the bottom? I'm trying to install the m4 conversion bumper and I can't make the bottom part line up and consequently the two parts where connect with the fenders, near the headlights. I removed the black part he told to get rid but still nothing. Please help😓

[@Supremepikachu]

@@Tayf32m4style Mine still didn't fit, acording to BMW the bottom shield was different which would caused this issue, i got rid of the bumper and got a M sport one instead which fitted like a charm. I know one thing for sure, never ever buy chinese or taiwanese quality car parts ever again.

[@123hobo321]

Looks sweet dude

[@adrianobrumat7600]

The oem fog lights from the old bumper can be intstaled on the new bumper?

[@robertbarragan7388]

Did u have your fog light error from the fog light delete coded out

[@JDCarsChannel]

No I still need to code it out. No new rivets needed other than the wheel well liners

[@mcintosh.motors]

Looks great but ima prob keep the msport. it looks a too wide in the front without getting all the side fenders.

[@nawaryoussef]

Around how much the total kit will usually cost you? I'm thinking about doing same to my 2015 BMW 328i x, but not sure if it worth it

[@213_e46]

760

[@bmwhn7733]

You can just use the stock bmw logo while you decide which one to buy right ? Or is it different ?

[@justinrobert6573]

I do not see why not? They are double sided taped. Take some work to get off.

[@bmwhn7733]

Justin Slawek if I’m not mistaking they’re not actually put on there with double sided tape they’re just two pins and that it

[@justinrobert6573]

@@bmwhn7733 Yep. Just adhesive on the back. Heat / Pry tool / Fishing line and its gone!

[@nathanielquick4259]

Deciding between getting another sport bumper of m3 style bumper after my current sport bumper got damaged. May have missed it but did you keep the brake vents? also if you had to do it again is there anything you would change in your process or wish you had to make the process easier?

[@edgardoarroyo7418]

You did not cover the issue with the belly pan cover and sides extension not fitting with the M3 style bumber. What you did on yours?

[@lordtube1084]

OEM emblem always. It suits better on black edition BMW

[@JimmyC]

Nice work bro!!!.

[@JDCarsChannel]

Thanks man!!

[@breadtilian]

That’s so sick!

[@jaymillzlifestyle8049]

Wassup bro I’m planning on getting a 3 series 328i derive will I be able to get the M3 conversion bumper??

[@Ratalala]

Nice video A comparison in plastic/abs material with the OEM bumper could be interesting!

[@JDCarsChannel]

Thank you! Good idea!

[@zodiac8208]

My man!

[@brianz4077]

Hey man, nice job! Can I ask you one question? Did you buy it with painted, or you painted after you got it with unpainted?

[@JDCarsChannel]

Thanks! I bought it unpainted

[@ilyasmemon3803]

Hi, what type of clips did you use to secure the wiring for PDC and headlight washers?

[@abathingwilliam]

how much did you pay in total for paint job for these pieces? just ordered my bumper and side skirts this weekend super excited thank u broo

[@justinrobert6573]

Ive watched a couple of your Video's, SUBBED because you have good content! I did not know you upgraded cars either! I just got my first N54 last week.

[@JDCarsChannel]

Awesome! Thanks man!

[@Hko-xt2or]

Did you end up putting those air vents back on or keep it off

[@Ge0rgiev_]

Will m3 front splitters fit with the bumper or would you still need to use regular 340i add on splitters?

[@anthonykovacs]

What are the clips you used for he windshield wiper hose?

[@dannyb5854]

Amazing! How did you deal with the fog light error? I did a delete but have the light. Wondering how you cleared yours. Cheers!

[@JDCarsChannel]

I have just been ignoring it 😂 You can probably code it out with Carly or BimmerCode

[@SeanMichaels23]

Did this aftermarket bumper fit the stock front splash shields ?

[@jessef30eve]

Yoo Jd how much did the paint shop charge you? I live in Mass and I just got my m3 conversion bumper for my f30.

[@herckuful]

I need your help, i have m4 style f30 i need to cut the medal in front bumper because its on the way its not fittin to my f30 what to do?

[@bagdaduk]

I was looking into this conversion myself. But I've got the automatic cruise control black box in the front grill. Did you see a way to retrofit it?

[@JDCarsChannel]

Hmmm... my dad's 550 has that box too. You'd probably need to create a custom mount of sorts.

[@bagdaduk]

@@JDCarsChannel it's surprising that the M3 never had cruise control as a option to buy

[@xoxomikaaa1679]

this looks amazing omg, what year is your car?

[@JDCarsChannel]

Thank you! This is a 2012

[@mgrizzle19able]

What size rims and tires are you using and is it a stock height and shocks ?

[@patrickmurrihy5862]

Great video 👍🏼 where did you get this body kit and how much was it? Thinking of doing something similar to my 2012 330d

[@cadenbalibrera9015]

what kidney grills for this bumper I can’t find any for mine

[@paddeemusio]

So do you not have to put the wings on for the m3 bumper to fit?

[@JDCarsChannel]

Sorry, what do you mean by wings?

[@paddeemusio]

@@JDCarsChannel oh sorry I forgot, I mean fenders

[@delixxlpm]

Hey JD Cars! Do you have any Tips to me about style/modifice BMW x1 2011 ? Hope you answer me😎

[@JDCarsChannel]

Maybe an exhaust cutout to make it sound meaner?

[@TheCalmArts1]

Looks good! you gonna get a hood eventually?

[@JDCarsChannel]

Thanks! Yes planning on it!

[@Gearsandco]

i have the same setup on my f30 love it !!

[@morwatsherkhan5605]

What year is the car? I got a 2013 328 worried that it won't fit

[@ayubalom786]

Are you gonna do the Interior conversion aswell??

[@JDCarsChannel]

Probably an M3 wheel... probably not the seats

[@robertbarragan7388]

Do you need to put new rivits in

[@mrtumble3160]

Hi, do you know if the tow hook size is the same for M3 and F30? I have the same bumper, and I tried the tow hook mounting license plate for the F30 but it was too short

[@paddeemusio]

How much did the kit set you back before painting? And did you have to alter the rear arches for the rear bumper?

[@JDCarsChannel]

About $1300 if I recall correctly. No modification was required for the rear bumper to fit, other than swapping the plastic sensor bracket (new white bracket included with the bumper).

[@paddeemusio]

@@JDCarsChannel that’s a fantastic price

[@zacharyfix4594]

M3 fenders next

[@AbrahamMusalem]

How do you remember where everything goes?

[@Temezzzz1637]

Just take photos of the process

[@victornunez6010]

Did have your bumper fit tested before having it painted

[@JDCarsChannel]

Nope. Just sent it

[@chrismorris5548]

I'm doing the same conversion but on a 320i. My car doesn't have front parking sensors though. The M3 style bumper has holes for them so I'm going to buy the sensors just to fill the holes. The only problem is, the 2 middle holes are bigger than the 2 outer holes. Was this the same for you?

[@JDCarsChannel]

Sweet! Yes - the two inner holes are larger, but the included parking sensor brackets fill them completely

[@Danishness]

Nice!! Did you do a trial fitment before paint?

[@JDCarsChannel]

Nope! Just sent it!

[@XxS1l3nTxa1Mx]

Should I do this or m sport bumper

[@JDCarsChannel]

Totally up to you! The install process is virtually identical

[@VestroGaming]

Would the install be the same for the 2017 320i? Assuming the positions are the same and I only have parking sensors

[@JDCarsChannel]

Yes

[@YouDontKnow...]

I did that same conversion now im having trouble finding the undertreys and wheel arches that fit

[@Tayf32m4style]

Hi, I'm having the same issue. How did you solve it? Please help me

[@YouDontKnow...]

@Taylor Rose gota use the airducts if the car didnt have any, assuming it wasnt an m sport. Also the wheel arches need to have the opening for the airducts. Wheel arches for M sport with air ducts connected from the front. That holds it in place.

[@alfredogarcia7554]

Are those depo headlights or oem?

[@JDCarsChannel]

OEM

[@mackanfors7860]
