Hi, this is my first post, I have a bog standard 320d se, I have just managed to buy new front and rear bumpers and side skirts for an Msport retrofit, I also have the splitters for the front and rear, I have all the grills for the bumper and air ducts, but... I've read a really decent write up on here and there is a massive parts list, is there any way to fit the front bumper without taking the rad out and swapping the deformation elements?? Was really hoping this would be a nice swap as I've just paid the paint shop for the bumpers 🙈.. thanks

you might get more responses if you post directly in that thread that did the write up if you haven't already

The m sport deformation elements are shorter and the screw holes that hold the support is up and down compared to the regular which are angled. It doesn't allow the m sport support to attach. The radiator doesn't need to come out, just the fan.
