BMW 5 Series G30/G31 2017–2023 Facelift Kit (for M5 F90 2021)

Description

The M5 F90 2021 restyling kit is a complete set of exterior parts that converts the pre-facelift BMW 5 Series G30 (sedan) and G31 Touring (wagon) from 2017–2020 to the look of the facelifted M5 F90 LCI without replacing the hood and front fenders. It includes 9 items: M5 F90 front bumper, Full LED Laser headlights, M-Look V3 kidney grilles with shutters behind them, M-Sport/M5 rear bumper with M5 LCI diffuser, LCI-design taillights for the 2017–2020 body, M5 F90 side skirts, and 2 exhaust tips — manufacturer GBT, body parts for painting. Compared to the M-Tech 2021 kit, it features a more aggressive M5 design, and compared to the M5 Competition 2021, the hood and fenders remain OEM.

This is strictly an exterior M5-look: the engine, suspension, brakes, and body width remain OEM.

What’s included in the kit

• M5 F90-style front bumper (for 2021+);
• Full LED Laser front headlights (for 2021+);
• M-Look V3 kidney grilles (radiator grilles) in gloss black;
• air flap — shutters located behind the kidney grilles (for 2021+);
• M-Sport/M5 rear bumper;
• M5 LCI Style rear bumper diffuser;
• LCI-design taillights for the 2017–2020 body, 2 pcs;
• M5 F90 side skirts (for 2021+);
• M5 Silver exhaust tips, 2 pcs.

Manufacturer — GBT (China), material — aluminum and plastic, installation in OEM mounting points. Body parts are supplied for painting. The kit ships in three boxes; the largest is 190 × 58 × 73 cm and about 30 kg, so plan in advance where you will receive and store the parts before installation.

Do you need to change the hood and fenders when restyling a G30 to an M5 F90?

The main difference of this version is that to switch to an M5-look you don’t need to replace the hood and front fenders. They are not included in the kit: the new bumper and headlights mate with the OEM parts, and the body width does not change. If the hood or fenders are damaged (for example, the car was in an accident), they are repaired or replaced separately — the restyling can be combined with restoring the front end.

The front and rear bumpers and shutters in this conversion are replaced together: the facelift headlights have a different shape than the pre-facelift ones, and the 2017–2020 and 2021–2023 taillights differ in profile. That’s why the kit includes LCI-design taillights made for the pre-facelift body.

Which G30/G31 does the kit fit, and what should you check before ordering?

The kit fits both the G30 sedan and the G31 Touring wagon. For the manager to confirm compatibility, send the VIN, model year, and photos of the car and уточніть:

• body — G30 or G31;
• type of OEM headlights (halogen, LED, Full LED adaptive) and whether adaptive lighting is present;
• cameras and parking sensors;
• condition of the OEM shutters;
• rear bumper and exhaust configuration;
• whether there were any body repairs.

The Full LED Laser headlights from the kit also fit cars with OEM Full LED adaptive, but the adaptive functions (cornering lights, automatic high beam) are not retained after replacement. If they are important to you, discuss the kit option with the manager before ordering.

How to install correctly

1. Remove the pre-facelift bumpers, headlights, taillights, and side skirts.
2. Test-fit the new body parts before painting — check gaps, mounting points, shutters, cameras, and parking sensors. The parts mount to OEM locations; welding is not required.
3. Paint the bumpers and side skirts in the body color.
4. Install the headlights, taillights, diffuser, and tips.
5. Aim the lights and, if needed, perform coding.

Do not paint the parts before a final test-fit: first the installer must make sure everything fits evenly.

If later you want to add a front lip, diffuser, or spoiler, choose them specifically for the M5 F90 bumper: lips for M5, M Performance, M Sport, and the standard bumper have different shapes and are not interchangeable.

You can install the kit at the network of certified DD Tuning service centers — the manager will suggest the nearest center when placing the order.

How do the M5-look, M-Tech, and M5 Competition kits differ?

In the catalog of restyling kits for G30/G31 there are three options — these are different designs and different contents, not quality tiers. M-Tech 2021 is a more restrained factory style: M-Tech front bumper, 1 Bar kidney grilles, MT diffuser, and M-Performance tips. This kit is more aggressive — M5 bumper, M-Look V3 kidney grilles, M5 LCI diffuser. And M5 Competition 2021 additionally includes M5 F90 fenders and an aluminum hood in the M5 CS style — for those who want to change the entire front body section as well. Individual elements can be selected in the body kits for BMW 5 G30/G31 section.
