Hello all, trying to put euro bumpers on my convertible and the sides do not want to fit flush. I can’t find any info on if there are convertible specific bumpers, but I did see that CEP has a convertible only set of them. Any help?

You should have gotten the convertible only set."I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj

Well I didn’t buy these off of CEP, I got them with an mtech 1 set, so wasn’t really an option… but thanks for your response… it helped.Comment

Well convertibles use different side skirts and the rear fender arch is lower so the rear bumper ends are longer like the facelift E30's sedans/coupes. Since euro bumpers are 3pc, you could just get longer ends and that should solve your problem but then you still don't have the correct side skirts."I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj

Rear endcaps are longer on convertibles. Are you having the same issue on fronts?Originally posted by popofseth View PostsigpicComment

It wasn’t the end caps, it was the actual bumper that I could not get to mount correctly. After some crying and cussing I figured out that I shouldn’t drink when working on these. I got them test fitted. Now I have to get the turn signals and fogs working (not sure why the fogs aren’t, could be just the bulbs but I was done by then). Yep, side skits won’t fit, and I don’t have the rear. 🫤 so if anyone has either let me know. Thanks!Comment
