M-tech Front Bumper Installed!!!

BMWLove86 · 07-19-2011, 07:39 PM

I've joined the m tech front bumper club. Got the bumper in on friday got it painted Monday and installed today. Fitment is spot on. I can notice that the ducts are partially blocked so maybe in the future I may get the m tech ducts but i'm in no rush.

I'm getting a painted bumper reflector to replace the amber one. As for my rims I don't think they look bad maybe the picture makes it look bad, check out the video.

nice

Since you already have that spoke design I suggest some volk re30's

also depends on your budget.

I want that front so bad, but I can not put any more money in this car.

Mine is in the shop now getting that bumper and m3 skirts, yours fits nice...but I can say (not trying to flame you) ... that paint doesn't look like a match to me. I can clearly see a difference. I'd get them to do a respray .

ibeclueless · 07-22-2011, 06:22 AM

looks nice

E92-Lighting · 07-22-2011, 01:33 PM

nicely done, looks much better after the MTECH bumper upgrade

koruptiondblg · 07-24-2011, 03:52 PM

looks good man. Upgrade the sideskirts too and that thing will look aggressive

AaronLBeltran · 07-28-2011, 01:28 PM

Replica or OEM? Either way,

droptop335 · 07-29-2011, 09:44 AM

Looks great...I am considering doing the exact same thing. I have a 2007 (pre-LCI) E93, and would really like a sportier bumper. Someone scraped paint off my current bumper, so I would need to spend some money anyway. One question I have is: How much lower, if any, does the new bumper sit relative to the ground? The reason I ask is that I have a steep driveway, and the current bumper clears it, but not by much. If the M-Tech bumper is more than 1/2 inch lower, then I might be in trouble.. Any help is appreciated.
