I just purchased an m3 rep bumper and I need opinions from people. Do I keep the washers covered or get washer covers put back on?!

Like I said on fb don't do it brother. If you had the option I would say go for it, but since you don't have headlight washers it would be useless. Looks so much cleaner without them man, especially on your color.

Don't make those holes. I had to make those holes to my M-sport bumper, but didn't want to. Here we have inspection once a year and headlight washers are mandatory with xenon lights, so they need to work. In my opinion those washers are useless.

you don't have headlight washers? Is that an option in the US? Xenon withouth washers?
It's just not allowed in germany.

If you don't have them, don't drill holes in your bumper

(i hate the original M3 washers. Why did they stick out? Weight reduction?! LOL)

I got this bumper from a buddy that was meaning to buy it for his e90 but didn't fit so I got an excellent deal on it!! The bumper came with the washer holes but then the guy with the e90 wanted them covered..now I'm in debate if I want them the way they are or have him drill into it..but I think m3 front is sexy especially with the air ducts

I get what you're saying about looking more "oem" with the cutouts, but I wouldn't go through the trouble of making them since they aren't there to begin wih

Keep em closed up. Looks cleaner that way. Post photos after paint and install..........so we could bust your balls and say that you should have left the holes.
