edit: Everything is not absolutely necessary, but you may have to mod some current parts.

I dont know if i understood you correctly but the two pieces your talking about are they the brake ducting? If so then i think you got all the necessary parts for the M-tech so far. Maybe some photo's will help in getting these parts needed for the install.

Give garry at newport BMW in RI a call or email (https://5series.net/forums/topic/180...ssory-discount)on the link i've just supplied and he give all fourm members 25% off parts. Supply him with Part numbers on the website www.realoem.com and he'll get you the parts or you can contact your local BMW dealer to get these parts.
