Replacing the plastic scrape guards under the front bumper

dfilak · 10-27-2014, 08:43 AM

Does anyone have the part number(s) for left and right plastic scrape guard that is under the front bumper (2015 M3-F80). Additionally, what clips,screws and/or other items are needed when replacing?

Much appreciated,
Darius

Just browse through here and I'm sure you can find it.

Thank you so much. It wasn't with the bumper section but found it within the 'underhood shield' section. Thank you, this is great!

dfilak can you link what you found? I think that is what I broke on mine (right side). Right now its its about half size as I ripped the dangling section off. Not sure if I should replace it as I believe it might be from the angle I enter my garage at.

Do those absolutely have to be trimmed off to install the BMW OEM front lip?

The shop that installed my front lip had them removed and had replaced the lip in there place, he even handed them to me for safe keeping

That's how I scraped mine, going into my garage. The part (#3-passenger & #2-driver) is not that expensive (<$30).

got a little chafe on mine leaving a gas station the other day. Sounded really bad and I was cringing, after checking it out just roughed one side up a little, still fully intact.

I only got the rubber flap a bit not the bumper at all. So lucky. I know the feeling you had right then, not knowing what I did.

Really scraped-up/cracked those front flaps under the bumper and want to replace.
Anyone done this yet? Where can I get the parts/flaps?
Thanks

major one · 04-16-2015, 07:18 AM

mine are all ripped to shreds as well. im going to leave them as is though as i'm postivie i'd rip up the new ones too. and the ones after that. and after that. i just try and shrug it off though it does bother me everytime i wash the car and see their condition.

Jimjamz · 04-16-2015, 07:43 AM

Mine are shredded. I was wondering if putting in a new lip spoiler would make them go away?

Lip spoiler is pricey, and, I'm scared I'll damage that also.

Any suggestions as to where I can order new bumper flaps?

Thank you.

Didn't know it was called a "deflector lip".

I ordered from ecs also. They are sitting in my garage for when I part out my car one day. My lip required the air guides to be cut. It is an easy install... just a few screws.

Ripped and quite unavoidable, too low to the ground. I will replace when they are shredded.

Wah · 04-16-2015, 10:05 AM

The rubber flap that hangs down cuts off very easily (and cleanly) with a box cutter. Instead of buying a whole new one, maybe just take the part off, cut off the rubber flap and reinstall.
