The M-Sport versions are typically more expensive second hand, simply because they cost more new due to all the extra options you get (exterior, interior, suspension, wheels) and are rarer. When I purchased my 550i M-Sport at the beginning of the year, I actually found it would have been cheaper to buy a standard version and have the M-aerodynamik and Eibach-Pro kits retro fitted, and then put on the 19s I already had. If you want it all factory original & OEM (like myself), then you are correct, its probably cheaper with the M-Sport version from the start. If like M57D30-T2 you are interested in non-OEM equipment as well, then his approach is probably cheaper.


on board M57D30-T2 and enjoy the forums!

There is a UK Sub-Forum here in this E60 Discussion forum. Not sure how useful that will be for Ireland, but its "local" and could help reduce shipping costs?? I believe mstyle is a well known UK vendor. Otherwise there are US vendors here in the forum or Eurozone vendors in Germany such as "www.salesafter.de".

I hope you get that car up together and go for those BBS LMs!! That will look incredible, its an awesome wheel

M57D30-T2

thanks alot guys good help so far,
still looking to source the msport kit. Has anyone bought a non OEM msport kit? Do they fit ok? I think the genuine one is very expensive.

I think this is the best price you can find for the OEM mtech kit!

M57D30-T2

hey thanks man, thats an unbelievable price. almost to good to be true. has anyone any experience with this supplier? are they high quality? fit well? id hate if they were like spurious parts, can anyone tell me the difference between SE and MSPORT front fog lights? i thought they were the exact same apart from being position differently in the bumper?

thanks for the info I will keep this for later use
the price sounds about right.
Do any of you know it this will fit my 2009 LCI car?

They are reliable. My friend Milko (member Milko75) ordered his kit from them and it is OEM quality, because they sell only OEM stuff. The kit includes every little part you need in installing and they fit 100%. Standard fog lights are different compared to ones that are used with the mtech kit. The complete kit includes them.

Sure you have to get the kit painted. It's primered when you order it.

I can post you intallation instructions if you need them now or later. See Milko's thread about our nice day of installing it.

Sorry I don't know. Maybe emailing them would help.
