I also read another member was not happy with the fitment of the M5tech front they purchased from Nerweezy. Are all the replicas like this? Op, we have the same color car. I like what you have done. Please post more pics of it cleaned up an out of the body shop!
BTW, the front is M5tech not Mtech.

I purchased my first front M5Tech from Joe @ Trinity and it was spot on
It's actually pictured on their website.
It would still be on if the dealer hadn't scraped and cracked it (only to replace it with an OEM M Tech
)

It's the same color as yours so I'm definitely excited. I see what you mean about the PDC sensors and pull levers, the fronts are definitely not spaced correctly and compared to OEM it definitely looks "different" but the only one who will probably notice is you.
+1 on the matte black kidney grills. I should have done this to my rear diffuser.
You can't judge paint match from a photograph - its pretty obvious in the pics the light is reflecting differently against each side. Have to see it in person.
Enjoy!

where did you get the side? I've heard of it being few mm short but never an inch though. How are you supposed to screw it in if it's an inch short is beyond me.
Any pic?
