Nice work, good price! I was talking with my dealer (New Century Bmw) today and they mentioned that someone from Vegas was asking about an Mkit but, they wouldn't ship it to Vegas for some reason

Congrats on the purchase!
That was me. I tried to shop all around California and Arizona no one could match the Crevier price and most said they would not ship. Crevier again has the best prices. Makes me wish I lived by them.

Factory paint? Paint done by the dealer or outside shop? Dealer is about $1300ish if you shop around dealers...

Outside shops can be low. I think I read like 800 before... $1000 would be about right.

Outside shops usually charge around $1K to as high as $1500 for paint AND installation.

Znod: ya the kit comes with everything you need... every single bolt and nut.

It'll be this kit.
Thanks for attaching that! I have been looking for that for a while.

Not a problem... you can pay me back the next time I go visit Vegas.

Thanks to both of you for the clarification. Apparently, there is a kit, or some variation, that does not come with everything, right?

After-market paint can be excellent. Still, I would always prefer to have everything painted at the same place--factory or after market. Sometimes it is hard to do as well as the robots after-market wise.

The complete kit has everything you need but comes in two types...one with PDC and one without. There are two different part numbers for each of these and they should come with everything.

You can also order separate pieces of the kit, such as the front spoiler only in effect, unraveling the kit into its components. When you do this, each component also has a unique part number. You just have to make sure the dealer gets you everything you need to mount the front spoiler..like the new foglights.

As for paint, aftermarket shops are just as good. If you get everything done at the dealers, chances are they are outsourcing the job to a local paint shop anyway.

No dealers would quote me a factory painted price. I dont think we can get them here in the states. All the parts guys from all the dealerships say there is no part numbr for pre painted kits.

Here is the answer to the questions regarding if the kit included the fog lights and PDC.



"Yep, kit is for pdc cars and comes with m tech fogs as well."
