Msport retrofit body kit for f31

JollyRodger · 12-25-2014, 07:03 PM

Hey guys!

New member here. I have been snooping around for almost a year now but I finally decided to ask a question. I love my f31 diesel. I fell in love with the mineral white at the dealer so at the time I ordered the sport line instead of MSPORT while still getting the sport seats. Of this last year I also fell in love with the red accent stitching and red trim lines. But I kinda miss the msport look.

I was looking around and really find all the info so confusing. I know there are replica kits and then there are kits from tischer. I checked realOEM and the only different body panel is the rear. The sides and front are the same from f30 and f31.

So I was thinking maybe a replica kit for the front and sides and oem for the rear. I was thinking of only doing the front but about a week ago I backed into a stupid concrete block that the pcd didn't pick up and I didn't see out the mirrors or looking back. Just the most bad luck ever . No structural damage just the rear body panel has to be replaced. So now if I do the back and front might as well do the sides.

Can someone point me in the direction of how to best go about it? Rep or contact tischer for a kit special for the f31? The tischer set is kind of pricy plus paint and install.

Or is there a quality rep for most the parts but the back that comes complete?

You can't go wrong with Evan at Tischer BMW. He'll hook you up.

I did it this on my F30, and went Ebay front (with M Perf Lip) and OE BMW sides and rear.
You effectively can't go wrong with the guys at Tischer !

Can I ask where you got your front? Did it come with the pdc? And all the other mounting stuff needed or just the bumper and then you had to get the attachments separately?

Looking at tischer it would really only make sense for the whole kit. The rear + shipping would be like $10 less than msrp. And the sides are pretty cheap as well so with shipping I might as well go to a local dealer for oem if the delta is like <$100 for rear and sides. It looks like the biggest expense in parts is the front.

I got the front from an Ebay seller called SelmaUSA.
But it seems like he doesn't stock them anymore.

The front bumper came with everything required to install it.

Ok, asked this in the PNW sub but that place seems dead. Anyway, anybody have an recommendations for shops to do the paint work in the Seattle area?
