240i rear bumper on 230i

Panda230i · 05-13-2024, 06:02 PM

I sold my 2007 335i (e92) and I got 2023 BMW 230i xdrive from an auction (g42, base bumper trim). The rear bumper is completely damaged.

Can I order M-Trim bumper kit from 240i and install it on my 230i? From what I can see at least on the online bmw dealer websites, these rear bumpers would fit. But nobody from actual dealerships was able to confirm that.

Also what mods would you suggest to do in addition? For now I’m thinking about modifying exhaust tips and I wish to make more aggressive sound from it if it’s doable on my base model. I appreciate any feedback!

Yes, it will fit, but you also might need other parts underneath the bumper. Best to talk to somebody in the parts department.
