Hi, I singed up for this forum a while ago but I guess I'm still a noob..
This is probably a long shot but any of you could post pictures of E92 coupe with M-aero kit (painted or w/o paint), I would greatly appreciate it.

Currently debating if I should go with M-style (mtech?) bumper or M-aero..

Anyone bought M-aero from Ebay vendor in the past? If so, please share your feedback of their product.. Any fitment issuse?

Thanks in adv.

That looks amazing. I guess you had to change fenders as well?
Thanks for sharing!

changing the fender is not required.. its should fit perfect on your coupe

Thank you for sharing! That is exactly what I was looking for.
If you don't mind me asking, how much was it to get it paint and have it installed for Mtech?

Looks like Mtech is the best way to go

I would say the m-tech is closer to the M3 look then the m aero

I went to the best shop I could find, so paid on the high end, prep and paint was $500, did the install myself - bumper is pretty easy, takes less than an hour to remove the old one and install the new one.

If it is OEM, body shop should charge an hour to do it, if aftermarket, may be more if they have fitment issues.

I see.. I do not have a garage or tools to do DIY So, I should expect to spend about $400ish for bumper + paint (400-500) + install.


I guess this have to wait a bit.. Thanks for the info!

I just priced everything out for my e92 at a local shop in CT. With buying the mtech front paint prep and install it was a total of 1,100 bucks. A lot of money just for a new front bumper but its so hard to say no...

If you don't mind me asking, where did you purchase your bumper from?

Tischer has them, but depending on what you are trying to do, the $500 for the bumper is only half of what you need - total kit is like $1100 as you need all the grills, fog lights and misc brackets supports, air ducts, and technically you need a new undertray to match it, although some people just don't bother.

You are probably looking at $1500-1700 all said and done unless you buy a replica bumper.
