    Eurostop replica M-Tech 1 rear apron. Trying one for the team

    READ THE WHOLE THREAD, SPECIFICALLY STARTING AT POST 64, BEFORE CREATING ANY OPINIONS ABOUT THE PRODUCT.

    Just placed an order for the rear apron. I talked to the guys today and he said he wants to remake the mold and will get it heading my way in a couple weeks.
    I'll test fit it and take some pictures when I get it. We'll see how well it fits and if it can be mounted with little modification.
    Here's hoping!

            $90 for shipping. It shows up when you click the buy button on the site.

            I held off on the front for now because I'm really afraid about having fiberglass on the front where I could hit crap. I'm hoping to find a decent OEM one at some point. They pop up quite a bit more than the rears for whatever reason.

                  I just got Eurostop's M-tech 2 rear piece. It's the apron only though.

                    Yeah, front needs all the hardware for mounting that you still have to source :(

                      What hardware do you mean? Just the bolts and such or does it need a metal valance under it or something?

                          From what I read you need the front metal euro valance .

                            my rear apron is on w/the original 10mm bolts and 2 truck-camper clamps under the rear end, its no-going-no-where-no-time...but its not any mtech (1 or 2) although i wish it was.

                            do we have any pix on the current apron at hand. (on the car)

                              currently it's stock, it pissed me off at first but I got over it. I liked it but at the same time it kinda made it look like it was wearing a diaper.. like those E36 bumpers people try to run.
