LOL. I googled it and found a m-tech II ix that was supercharged. Doesn't have pods and skirts, but it's pretty much m-tech II. Weird no flares either.

EDIT: I meant no Pods. It has the skirts. It was too late for me apparently.

you guys are gonna love me. I did a lot of searching and found not only an mtech 2 325ix, but a BAUR M-tech II 325ix

Eh, my bad, I thought I saw it mentioned in one of your old iX 5-lug related threads.

^ I think you can use some of the components from the E34 525iX with a 5-lug swap on an E30iX.

no, not without custom fab. i wish this theory would just die. E30 M3 or E36 Ti hubs will work though.

Interesting.

It should work considering ix and i plastic bumpers+valance are interchangeable. What would be real neat is to combine the ix flares with the mtech2 sides.

I have been wanting to do that forever.

i like this thread. want to see where this goes.

Just letting you know, that valence is the same as all of the other late-model valences.

Also interested in how this would look. Can't say I've ever seen it done before. And a 5-lug swap would be interesting. Considering that the front and rear wheel bearings are the same to the best of my knowledge, maybe the hubs are as well? Did BMW ever make compatible 5-lug hubs for that bearing size?

If you are looking at getting rid of your IX valence, I may be interested if it is still in good structural condition.
