New 280i owner (in the states) with big plans-bumpers
Discussion
Hi guys, I just acquired a 1985 280i that needs lots of help. This model has the large, chunky rubber bumpers (I'm not a fan of). Sorry for the ignorant question but......will the 350i/390 bumpers fit without too much finagling? I'm a cobbler at heart and not afraid of a challenge.
Thanks for your input.
I may mould my own but keeping one eye open for bumpers, front spoiler as well.

Thank you Tvrmk. The person above has offered to ship his bumpers in the future(my car is still in FL -no rush). I bought my 280 a little too quickly I think. Since, there has been a very nice one sold on eBay that needs a lot less love than mine(spilled milk). I bought mine so quickly that I didn’t even notice (embarrassing) that either the front lower spoiler is missing totally or ....
It has a center section only??
I’ll investigate once it reaches its new home.
Thank you for the mould offer.....I may reach out later.

Hi Wedgehead,
I have both a 350i and a 280i and have purchased a 350i front bumper that is still in primer. I'm in Ohio. If you plan to make one you can use it as a mold for lay up.
the lower front spoiler which one of the guys commented on, thinking he was talking about the bumper is different than the 350 and such.
You don’t happen to ha e a pic of your front bumper do you?I have both a 350i and a 280i and have purchased a 350i front bumper that is still in primer. I'm in Ohio. If you plan to make one you can use it as a mold for lay up.
