There's some ebay listing screenshot in the pictures. Kit was apparently $1500 in April of this year, but you can see the sort of yellow fiberglass backside in the tiny picture...

Not worth whatever savings there was over the Mrbodykits/garagistic/CAtuned stuff.

And the catuned/garagistic stuff doesn't even fit that great from what I've seen (I have a set of the bumpers). That car sold for $12,500. A rebuilt title E30 with a cheap body kit and a cheap paint job. Anyone who doesn't already have an E30: it's time to go home. E30s are great cars and I love mine but come on now they are not worth that.

I can't get audio working on the videos. I can NOT take vertical videos seriously anyways.

I don't understand why BaT would even allow a rebuilt/salvage title car like this on their site. If it was rebuilt properly then fine, but it definitely wasn't and the fact that somebody might get scammed into bidding on this absolute turd is frustrating. Also gotta love how the seller posts a video of him speeding like a moron.

sorry for the .ca link but this matches. A few other sellers out there too.

Actually hilarious because I bought from one of the other sellers that came up - a 4-dr kit in 2021 during covid for my shitbox, but they cancelled the order saying something like their shipper couldn't ship right now lol... bullet dodged I guess?

It looks like the sides are glued on, so will just crack off.

Which M tech replica kit is that? The front end looks pretty bad in pictures so it must look bad in person. I do think that with a reasonable drop and some round head lights it might look pretty decent from 20'.

The paint (like how is there recent overspray everywhere, yet the hood is peeling by the badge and door edges/quarter/etc are all messed up) and that MT2 rep kit looks reallllly rough in the pics. Taifun front end is fun, but a little weird - but easy to fix.

The seats look spectacular, but then what the fuck is going on with that shifter, hood badges, no washer bottle cap... easy shit to fix, so why skip the cheap stuff?

OOF.

Look like it could have been a salvaged survivor.
