Hey All
I have the m-tech rear bumper, and will need to buy the m-tech front bumper to resolve my clearance problems. If I get the M-tech front bumper, will I need to buy the M-tech side skirts?
How much different are they? I wanna drop all needed parts off at the paint shop in one shot. __________________

I don't think the Mtec ti ever had the "twisty" side skirts that the real M3 did. Almost positive they fit up exactly though cuz I've seen them. Maybe Juni??? __________________

They do seem different than the standard ones. Also, the M-tech front bumper doesn't seem to be any lower to the ground than the standard bumper, just has a different edge on the bottom. Quote: | Originally Posted by madfronter | __________________

Well, how many people would even need them. No point unless you have the M-tech front and or rear bumper, and your car was not originally M-tech.  Quote: | Originally Posted by madfronter I guess no one but you and I are interested L8. | __________________
