3. Those that went body color - is it necessary to mask paint to keep the recessed areas black and the proud areas body color? I want to do the recessed areas the same gloss black as my kidneys and shadowline trim, but LeMans on the other areas.

4. There are what looks to be two screw holes on each side - is there an insert that gets glued on over the holes to cover them up?

5. What is the correct part number - Tischer's links shows CF version and non-CF, but shows the single exhaust? I have a 2011 E90 LCI with M-Sport bumper and need the part number and cost.
1. Mine came unpainted in blue.
2. No, you'll need to do minor cutting of your M-Sport bumper.
3. Yes, you should mask it.
4. Let me confirm then get back to you.
5. Go to RealOEM.com and put in your VIN number. The part you need is marked #9 in this picture: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/diagrams/w/r/253.png

I order my complete bumper from this place. At the time of purchase this place had the best price of $720 shipped.

I think there is a different part number for PDC bumpers if I remember correctly. You'll need to check RealOEM.com.
