Looks like the corner bumpers need to loosen up and adjusted in.
exactly. just loosen the nuts attaching them to the front flat section, pull them in and tighten. be careful not to scratch your paint! TAPE UP THE CAR FIRST

Thanks guys - I thought that might be the case. I am going to strip it all back dow to just the bumper and fit the bumper to the car first, they put the other stuff on.
Question - The original clips that came with the kit are a bit larger at the base. Do these exist anywhere? I only see the ECS clips on line. Appreciate the help.
Having a hard time with the front bumper trim. pretty clear how to use these bumper trim clips and they fit well in the plastic. they're used to hold the rear bumper rubber too
Unfortunately they don't fit very well on the ends of the front center trim. they're too small for the plastic mount and too low to stick through to the bumper. even bending the clip won't help. callie-euro front trim clip2 by
UPDATE: Levent and hendrixvodu clued me in. need to pull the clips through to the back side of the bumper. also make sure the center barbs stick out far enough to grab the back side of the bumper when installed.
Confirmed, 2 size clips. My fronts were all the large size. My rear parts mounting kit has the smaller size clips for both the front and rear bumper. I was able to make them work here.

Thanks, it is Sapphire Blue Metallic. State-side I think the color was only offered in 84 on the 318...not sure about euro cars but I think just 84 & 85.
If you are in Europe and cannot get it from BMW it must be NLA (no longer available). That's not good!
Bad news on the Strömung front.. The mtech exhaust he just released appears to work on mtech2 only. Puzzled by that since the MT2 used stock 325i exhaust..
Here's a repro MT2 rear apron. It's pretty thin where the tips exit, unlike the MT1 apron that wraps under.
Scott from Strömung finally got around to offering mtech versions of his exhaust. This is a cropped version of pic he sent me showing his prototype.
@tvance306 just tried trial fitting his tech strömung on his mtech1 car and the tips are clearly not angled enough. They don't exit straight like the standard strömung, but the angle just isn't sharp enough outboard to line up with the exhaust cutout on the mtech1 rear apron.
This isn't Scott's fault btw. His angled exhaust just doesn't fit mtech1. I'm in contact with him to look into getting these modded, also into switching to the double wall tips that came on my straight version.

I have a M60 with a five speed. I really enjoy the power and definitely on the top of the list -the sound. When driving around I get thumbs-up from all type of car guys. Subaru, Honda, Chevy and of course BMW.
It's probably the best complement to receive.

What strut brace do you have? Trying to find one that fits over my M62.
