I did a search and found some info. (from a few years ago.) Most of the info was for coupes.

and the answer was yes. i called a few bmw dealers. they had no idea.

i was wondering if the 2012 335is sport bumper convertible with parking assist will fit a 2008 335i convertible with park assist.

is it a direct fit with little modifications?

if so if any one knows the part numbers off hand from doing it, that would be great or pictures. thanks

Sorry, I don't have any #'s but the 335is convert bumper will fit without an issue.

Should fit fine- pretty much like an m-sport, no?

Yep fits fine.

Thank u. I'll know for sure next week. Going to order it.

It is just the m-sport bumper with an IS specific diffuser, I have the m-sport bumper on mine with the IS diffuser on it, the diffuser is the only different part number on the bumper between the M-sport and IS

Did u paint the diffuser the body color or a diff color.

I painted mine matte black.

My buddy called. I guess the parts came in. The upper bumperAnd the diffuser. I thought the diffuser was the
Underneath piece but It's more like the lower bumper.
It looks like I need more pieces. Like an underneath diffuser? The black piece that goes behind the diffuser. Is that one piece or seperate pieces? And is it expensive?

dude did you get this figured out? Im looking to do the EXACT same thing after some texting punk rear ended my 2008 e93 with PDC a couple weeks back. Let me know and if you can supply part numbers that would be great. thanks

It's at the shop and I think it's getting painted today. I believe they test fitted it the other day and it was a perfect match. There are more parts needed than I thought. U will need the top bumper. Then the lower bumper which they call the diffuser, but then u need the bottom piece which is the behind diffuser . U will also need left and right black stickers for the corners and a plastic then piece that goes in the center between the 2 bumpers.
U can't buy a whole kit. U have to buy it in pieces. Kind of a pain. I do have the bumper and lower bumper (diffuser) part numbers. I'll have to look for them. I'll post them.

Here are the part numbers I have:
Top bumper
51288044934
Lower bumper (diffuser)
5128043897
Sorry don't have the small pieces part numbers.
We back into those parts by looking up the above numbers.

Cars done. Everything fit perfect. (For those of u who are thinking of doing it.) No modifications or anything. Dinan exhaust fit perfect too

Correct, IS bumper is just m-sport with the performance diffuser, which you can change independently of the bumper.
