Is there any way to get an E92 MTech Front????

I have tried everywhere - there only seems to be 2 places to get an MTech front and both only sell the whole kit - E92kits (really expensive - they only sell it with the Carbon Diffuser and if you want the standard diffuser, they are happy to give it to you and still charge the same - with $500 less of product!!) or MWDesign, better price - $2500 instead of 3k, but crazy expensive shipping to the east coast of the US $800 from Vancouver, where E92kits is more like $300 from Vancouver also, so it all ends up being the same pretty much.

Is there anyone that will sell just the front - I already have the rear and don't want the skirts, so just want the bumper and the misc pieces to make it fit.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

Rob

I would try ordering from a Quebec or ONT dealership and drive up there to pick it up and bring it back down.

I've been locked up in the hospital since July, so not much time to be here. LOL~

Why are you getting rid of it? Getting a new ride?

I think your best bet would be to find people willing to take the sideskirts and rear off your hands. Good luck

Who would take them when you can get them for so cheap at Tischer...... That would mean the front bumper costs 2K to get! Crazy~

Kev - I tried that - grew up in Canada, and still have lots of family and friends there, so they could pic it up and ship it or I could go grab it from them, but I called the local BMW dealer and all the euro part numbers posted on the forum do not come up in their system, I had them try to look it up for me and all they came up with is the aero kit in their fiche.

Has anyone from Canada had any luck getting an M-Tech kit from a Canadian dealer, it isn't an option when you build a Canadian car, so it seems it is just as hard to get as in the US, except it might be ordable if a dealer knows what they are doing - same way Tischer get's rears, but apparently fronts are not DOT certified, so cannot be shipped to the US.

Starting to look like a good business opportunity for someone in Canada if they can get them for a good price!

The M-tech kit is not available at BMW dealer here in USA man, that's why the OP started this thread. Sure you can get the sides and rear from Tischer, the front is a PITA to get without spending big bucks.

Unfortunately, they only way to really get it is to buy the whole kit. But ever since Tischer started offering rears, and sides...it is not worth it for someone to go in as a part out.

Its funny how things turn out. I had a used one for sale for $1300 shipped back in july...everyone with any interest on this board was complaining that it was too expensive. People were offering me $1000 shipped! Or were saying fine...$1300 painted and shipped! I even offered free install to any local guys!!!

Well...now, with tischer selling individual parts at cost, the front piece out of that kit effectively costs $2k to get shipped and it is primered.

In the next 12 months, the e92 will likely be due for its LCI facelift...which means that this bumper will become even more difficult to obtain. But then again, the price may come down once a *newer* version is available.

Well for members who want the front, pm me so we can work something out. I am current only looking for the sides and rear so this would be our best option. I am located in la/oc so someone local would be preferred. (e92)

Pulled the trigger, only place to get a front in NAMotorsports in CT as far as I can find - everyone else wants to sell the whole kit and shipping is pricey to the east coast.

KobraKye - Tischer has the best deal if you just want the rear and sides, it is the front that is all the money!

One of dealer in Vancouver sell front bumper only for $840CND.

but its only the bumper, you have purcahse all other conjunction parts and other small parts. with 13% tax came up around $1300 USD. plus shipping was $200 to CA. i dont know where the phone number is, wrote somewhere else.
