Hi Guys,
I am planning to install MTech kit by myself if possible.. just so I could burn some calories on a weekend![Smile](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/smile.gif)
Could someone who has installed it, pls let me know what all I need to install it? exact Tools needed (I don't have anything)? Can i install it garage or need car lifting to get to bottom screws or something?
I am getting Front and Rear w/diffuser Mtech kit.
Also , detailed DIY w/pics would be very helpful. Thank you!!
Thanks.

a razor blade, exacto knife or army knife maybe a scissor can cut that plastic. But be sure to be accurate with that , i should have used the instructions. oh well. Dremel is easier thats all. It's really not hard to install, replace out replace new. Don't really need instuctions but he cutting just take your time.

Just curious, but if this is a "kit" why would any cutting be required? Seems if it were engineered correctly you should just bolt it on right?
