    88 325e - Mtech 2 Kit

    Just got a 88 325e and trying to get everything needed to add a Mtech 2 body kit:

    Body kit itself - https://www.garagistic.com/products/...40405172125795
    Bumper Carriers - https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...51118100572kt/
    Front bumper brackets - https://www.garagistic.com/products/...41496819499107
    Rear bumper shock - https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...r/51121971855/

    if I'm missing anything, have anything listed above I don't need, or cheaper way to get the Mtech 2 mounted please let me know. As I understand I don't need to update the valance, that 88 comes with diving boards but correct/late model valance for the kit.


    thanks for any help

    Hold your horses. Try to get used late model bumper carriers as new are pretty expensive for something you can't see. The front bumper brackets you posted are for putting euro bumpers on an early model car. They don't apply to your application. Your 88 already has those short bumper shocks so you should be able to run them with the plastic carriers.
