M-sport front bumper fitting

Hey guys, I have a 2012 F30 sport line right now and really want an m-sport bumper. I found this on Craigslist: http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/pts/5295933299.html

Would this be a hard swap? I know there are retrofit kits out there but this is a great price if it works!

Great price for OEM. But I think you only need the bumper cover itself.

Yeah it seems like a great deal. Just want to make sure it will bolt up!

you will have to recode your car if you have fogs to eliminate and paint it

Will I need to get different brackets, etc? Or should this just fit on?

I bought mine from a seller on ebay (Selma), lots of people on here have gotten great results from that seller (OEM equivalent M Bumper). I actually get my car back on Wednesday from the body shop so I will post pics of how it all turned out, cost etc...
