Retrofitting M8 bumper on M850i

Hey. I was wondering if anybody with a M850i G15 has retrofitted a M8 rear bumper on their G15? I can't seem to find literally anything about how to do it or where to buy it. I love the car, I just despise the rear bumper.

Also, I am in EU if thats of any help.

Cheers!

I did this. I did the full body panel conversion from the M8 to m850.

I meant the other way around. From M850 to M8 bumper.

I think I was drunk when I wrote that. I in fact meant, I put the M8 panels on the m850. Also in fact, I'm drinking again during this post. Dm me and I can share the parts list.

You'll need to customize the exhaust which is the only custom thing to make it look oem. It's not many parts to do the conversion.

I can't send PMs because I am a new user.
But I'd love for you to share the parts list. Do you also happen to have any pictures?
💪🏼

Yea it’s pretty straightforward install with OEM parts. Like Dasky_ spas said above the exhaust will be the challenge.

I have an extra diffuser for sale, the same as the one in the pic ^. You'll need it. It's a separate part from the bumper.

Not too hard. You find a body shop first then have the parts shipped there. All you need to do is order the parts..
