Ecarboy?

I went there before asking for m sport kit(e90 LCI), they told me that I only need the front and rear bumpers.
No side skirt needed, as they are the same as stocks.

But max motor sport told me differently.

So, stock side skirt = m sport side skirt?

So you are saying don't get replica?
Easy to tell?

Why is max motor sport saying the LCI stock side skirt is different from m sport side skirt while ecarboy saying they are the same?

Can someone here show me a pic of m sport side skirt?

hows the quality of their replicas? I've heard horror stories of them buying a kit that was off 3 inches... Not sure how they did that.

No need try replica as they are really not cheap in terms of value

Buy OEM M-Tech kit, the part price alone is very attractive nowaday since the F30 comes out, around 10K for parts with paint and installation cost another around 5-6K, total just $15-16K, those replica part + labour cost you over 10K

Besides, E9X OEM M tech Kit include all new front/rear bumper, 2 side skirt, rear defusor, fog light, plus some various intake parts under the front bumper.

Can anybody comment on the quality of the fitting? and is it visually different than the m tech bumper? I'm really liking the m tech kit
