    Mtech 2 replica kits?

    Does anyone know if there are any decent M-tech 2 replica kits out there?

    i was also wondering... is it common for people to repaint f&r bumpers? i'm not too crazy of the "undercoated" look.

    if so, i would probably go DIY... i have had great success doing DIY paintjobs on stuff like that, as long as you take your time and careful it comes out great :)

        so you make a post asking about replica kits. then you respond to the first post saying most replicas fit like shit? kind of a pointless post/response isnt it.

          They all fit like shit. To be honest OEM on the tech two or dont buy anything unless you want to spend hours doing cutting, glassing and fitting it.

              it's possible to make it look good.

              I have seen photos of two cars with the raceon replica installed, both took a lot of work to get them to look right, but it was a good result in the end.

              I have seen zero raceon installs that look like shit, which probably means that those people give up and never finish the install.

                He has a raceon kit and it took him weeks to make it fit right and look some what ok. I mean really in the end it came out "ok" but it took a serious amout of work to make it happen..

                  That's one of the two I'm counting. I haven't seen it in person, but it looks good in photos.

                    Not true whatsoever.

                    Eurostyle's (NOT EURO-STOP) M-Tech II replica kits are as damn close to OEM as you can get. I've seen 2 of their rear valances in person, and one of their front ends, and they were nothing short of perfect. All the people's cars I saw them on said they fit great, and didn't require any additional work to fit properly.

                      Yeah I know that, I have had his stuff before to and it was amazing and the fit was amazing. But the guy is so hard to get in contact with. Takes way way to long to make and ship something. Like 3 month wait. Really takes that long?
                      From what I have heard he isnt going to be making parts any more. Which is shity since I would have liked to order a few pieces..

                          If someone could get in contact with him that would be nice.

                            Have you tried to call him? 1-416-821-2578

                            He made up a mtechII front and rear valance for me the front fit like a glove, literally snapped over the oem. I have a early model car with plastic bumpers so my rear valance is different, I had to do a bit of modification to have the rear sit correctly.

                            I am happy with them.
