Good alternatives to MSport/Mtech Front/Rear?

Any suggestions guys?

As much as I love the Mtech kit, it's going to be so common since it's now available as an option in the US.

There really isn't anything that looks much better! They still won't be that common, at least for a few years as it is a costly option and the dealers don't bother getting stock cars with it. Maybe a nice lip or some carbon splitters to dress it up a bit and keep it unique!

Sorry if this has been beaten before but can somebody explain the difference between MTech, MSport, MAero??

Also, do the various front splitters,spoilers attach to the stock (E90 in my case) front bumpers or is there a stock piece to be removed prior to installing?

Thanks.

Aero is entirely different.... MSport/MTech is the exact same thing...

The majority of people have the Aero Lip which attaches... you can see all these different parts on getbmwparts.com..

The Aero kit has been available in the U.S. for some time now... the MSport/Mtech kit which replaces front/rear bumpers and sideskirts was European only until recently..

For the E90, this is the M-Tech Bumper. MAero is an add on kit for the E92 front/rear.
