Alright everyone. I'm getting the pre-LCI kit from Tony and will let everyone know how the install will go. Hope it fits!

Thanks for help.


The pre-LCI kit may not pass state inspections on the '08. Because the amber reflector was removed from the headlight assembly in the '08, you need an amber reflector somewhere on the side of the front quarter-panel. The pre-LCI kit does not have one.

On Sept. 14, 2007 at 12:00 p.m. Tony formally announced that the kits are available. Here is the link in this forum, where Tony himself announces that the '08 M-tech are finally in.

From who did you order the '08 kit? BMW tells me that there is no '08 kit for sale yet. Where did you order it and at what price??

I initially purchased the pre LCI kit and decided to go with the '08 M-tech kit. HOWEVER, I am having a difficult time finding clear lenses w/HIDS so I may revert back to the pre-LCI.

I understand that he says they are in, and I understand what a wonderful reputation he has earned on this board, and I have absolutely nothing negative to say about Tony AT ALL, but yesterday I wrote him and asked him to PM me prices, and I still haven't received the prices (and he is normally very good at responding quickly). The pix he has posted are simply the pix of the 550i with ZSP. I understand that the kit may be in development or may be "about to be" available, but it simply isn't "in" yet. Garry at BMW of Newport says BMW hasn't released an '08 kit yet, my dealer says the same, and Tony, who is a great guy I know, has not released any real info or pictures of any '08 kit yet. I just don't believe one is available for purchase yet, let alone "in".

PLEASE prove me wrong, because I have been patiently waiting for one since I picked up my car in April.

As an update--Tony PMd me just now to advise of the price for the '08 kit. No info on when delivery will take place, but at least it seems that a price has been set. PM him for that info if you are interested.

In Canada you can order the 535MSport from the factory .
My 535MSport has a factory installed aero-kit.
