Diff between MTech & M3 Side Skirts?

What's the difference between the MTech & the M3 side skirts. Anyone have a pick side by side? Is an MSport something different than an Mtech side skirt or are they the same thing?

msport are a lot more subtle, it really depends on the look you are going for, both look great on M-sport Cars

Hmmm, I think I like the M3 skirts the best but if I do go this route I want the fit to be 100% - 98% just won't do it for me. The Duke skirts look pretty good too - looks like a more aggressive M-Tech to me. Is there such a thing as an M3 skirt that fits 100%? Those on the blue car look pretty damn good, but of course it's hard to tell just how good the fit is without close-ups of the ends...

Thanks again guys - really appreciate the pics!

+1. And that's why I ended up with the OEM MTech skirts...for 100% OEM fit and finish.
