where is the best place to get the M5 bumper cover? im in southern cali..... id prefer to pick up so i didnt have to spend $100+ on shipping. also, between the M5 bumper and the Mtech the difference is the fog light opening in the Mtechs right? what are some other good choices. im going for a classy smooth look with aggresion but nothing wild. I am also looking for the best value with good product. thanks

I think you're right about the major difference being the fogs. As far as SoCal dealers, I hear alot about Trintiy Motorsports. I would do a forum search on them for more info. I've also been reading that Umnitza does a Mtech replica.

M-tech's probably the best out there with add-on lips(hamman, hartge, ACS etc). Check out Eurorev or trinityautosport or pm member john@Eurorev and nerweezy they are locals.

Mtech is probably your best bet. The M5 front is nice, but won't fit correctly like the Mtech front.

Also with the M5, you'll lose your foglights and the bumper is slightly wider than the normal bumper, which might require to get new fenders.
