Hello! I've got a freshly painted, soon to be installed 535is airdam going onto my lowly 535. Does anyone have a pair of the requisite fogs (with brackets) laying around? let me know
I've heard E30 M3 fog lights fit as well, might be easier to find searching that way. You might have to fabricate a bracket, but shouldn't be too hard with home depot.

Yep agree, thank you
i've been reading the stock hanging ones can be fenagled in there. Gonna give it a try once i get the car back from the shop...
E30 M3 housings will "fit", meaning the brackets align with the mounting points and you can screw them in however the adjuster screws are on opposite sides so the cutouts in the spoiler don't line up. Not a big deal. Of a bigger concern is that the frames are specific to the housings so make sure you get matched sets of each.
The hanging fogs will not fit, unless you are a fan of the "square peg in a round hole" look. I wouldn't go that route.

does your air dam have the four mounting blocks for the fogs? They all appear different to allow for the angle of the air dam where the fogs mount.
It does now, one of the blocks had to be 3d-printed and attached so i'll be good to go ...
