I have their M tech 1 kit and like the quality of the material. However, my only gripes would be that their reproduction pieces are not 1:1 copies of the originals. For example, their m tech front spoiler doesn't have the backing for the foglight adjusters like the stock one has so you will have to just aim the fogs and silicone or epoxy them into position. My biggest gripe are that the side skirts are slightly wavy where they meet the body line under the door and they don't mount like stock ie pushing the clips into holes in the rocker panel. Their skirts mount from the side, bottom and they recommend some type of epoxy on top. Not a huge deal as I dislike the idea of drilling holes but at least make the skirts straight where it meets the body line. My car is white so the black sills stood out in the gaps. My solution was using white caulking. When I bought this kit several years ago it was $800 shipped and people were asking $2300 for broken OEM. I think they have since raised the price so you may want to consider which is the better way to go.Last edited by reelizmpro; 08-02-2019, 12:48 AM."I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj

Are they the outfit on eBay selling OEM plate fillers for $400 and mtech steering wheel badges for $120? I don’t know anything about they quality of their replicas, but clearly they are opportunistic hustlers hoping to rip off some poor schmuck enthusiasts who doesn’t know they are marking up OEM parts 4-500%
