BMW 5 Series G30/G31 2017–2023 Facelift kit with hood and fenders (for M5 Competition 2021)

Description

The CJ-BDK-18G30-21M5CS facelift kit from GBT converts the pre-facelift BMW 5 Series G30 (sedan) and G31 Touring (wagon) model years 2017–2020 into the look of the 2021 M5 Competition together with the front end: 11 items — an M5 F90 CS aluminum hood, two M5 F90 fenders, an M5 F90 front bumper, Full LED Laser headlights, M-Look V3 kidney grilles with shutters, a rear bumper with diffuser in M5 LCI Style, LCI-design tail lights, M5 F90 side skirts, and two M5 Silver tips. Compared to the 2021 M5 F90 kit, it differs specifically by the hood and fenders; compared to the 2021 M-Tech, also by the bumper, grille, diffuser, and tips design.

All three are by GBT, aluminum and plastic, fit OEM mounting points, body parts for painting; these are different designs and contents, not quality tiers. The conversion is exterior only: the engine, suspension, and brakes remain OEM.

What’s included in the M5 Competition 2021 kit?

• M5 F90 CS style hood — aluminum;
• M5 F90 style front fenders — 2 pcs;
• M5 F90 style front bumper (2021+ design);
• Full LED Laser front optics — left and right headlights;
• M-Look V3 kidneys — radiator grilles in gloss black;
• air flap — shutters behind the kidneys;
• M-Sport/M5 rear bumper;
• M5 LCI Style rear bumper diffuser;
• LCI-design tail lights (“brake lights”) for the 2017–2020 body — 2 pcs;
• M5 F90 side skirts;
• M5 Silver exhaust tips — 2 pcs.

Parking sensors, cameras, and headlight washers are not included — the OEM ones are transferred over. The kit ships in five boxes; the largest is 218 × 80 × 69 cm and about 40 kg, total about 110 kg.

Why a hood and fenders if there’s a kit without them?

The M5 F90 2021 kit mates the new bumper and headlights with the OEM hood and fenders. Here the entire front end is changed: M5 F90 fenders give a sportier profile, and the aluminum M5 F90 CS hood with its signature contours makes the car visually closer specifically to the M5 Competition. The kit is also suitable for cars with damaged fenders or hood. The configuration is not fixed: it can be ordered without fenders — the manager confirmed this option in a reply under the product card.

Which G30/G31 does it fit and what to check before ordering?

The primary application is pre-facelift G30 sedans and G31 Touring wagons of model years 2017–2020: that’s why the kit includes LCI-design headlights and tail lights for the 2017–2020 body, because facelift bumpers without the corresponding optics will not fit on a pre-facelift car. If your “5 Series” is already facelifted (2021 and newer), the full kit is not needed: the 2021+ M5 F90 front bumper installs without modifications, and the fenders, hood, side skirts, and diffuser are selected with the manager.

To confirm compatibility, send the VIN, year, and photos of the car and specify: G30 or G31 body; type of OEM headlights; cameras, sensors, radars, and washers; exhaust (the pipe may need adaptation for M5 tips); tow hitch, Comfort Access, body repairs. Full LED Laser headlights also fit cars with OEM adaptive Full LED, but the adaptive functions (cornering light, automatic high beam) are not retained.

How is the kit installed with hood and fender replacement?

1. Remove the pre-facelift bumpers, headlights, tail lights, side skirts, fenders, and hood.
2. Test-fit the new parts before painting: gaps between the hood, fenders, and bumpers, hood lock and hinges, mounts, cameras, and sensors. No welding is required.
3. Paint the hood, fenders, bumpers, and side skirts in the body color.
4. Install the optics, tail lights, kidneys, shutters, diffuser, and tips, adjust the lights, and if needed — coding.

Do not paint the parts before a контроль fit: with the hood and fenders there are significantly more gaps than when replacing only the bumpers. After an accident, first perform a teardown inspection — reinforcements, mounts, and wiring may require separate parts. The kit can be installed at the network of certified DD Tuning service centers — the manager will point you to the nearest one.

What to combine it with?

Select a lip or splitter specifically for the M5 F90 bumper: add-ons for M Performance, M Sport, and the pre-facelift bumper are not interchangeable. Other options are in the G30/G31 facelift kits section, and individual elements are in body kits for BMW 5 G30/G31.
