here's our thread from the vendors classified section on the replica mtech parts we have: https://5series.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=77071 fronts and sides in stock, as well as replica M5 trunk spoilers. the replica mtech rear is on the way in the new year. the front has more of the looks of an M5 front. some say its best of both worlds having that look and keeping the fog lights. we can also get OEM as well

for the post above me, that rear is an M5 rear bumper with vorsteiner decklid trunk spoiler

Go with the M tech. why try to impersonate something your car isnt, IMO. I like the m5 rep front, but i only have a 530i, so im going m tech with the hamman rep cf splitter, shits a good look. However, to each there own haha. Enjoy your project.

Take a look at this post, I circled the differences for anyone that wanted to know. between OEM Mtech and Umnitza M5/Trinity M5 front.

That is my car and how it used to look like. I have the OEM M5 rear bumper with Eisenmann like Oval tips and dual magnaflow exhaust with OEM Trunk finisher and Vorsteiner Decklid Trunk Spoiler.

Let me know if you have any questions, i'll try to answer as much as I can.

I like the bottom grill on the M5, but I like the foglights on my mtech.

our replica mtech front looks more like the M5 front, but does include housings to use the stock fogs

If I were to switch my front bumper, I'd go with the Lumma style non wide body front. My car came with the MTEC oem kit so I didn't really have to "upgrade" to look like everyone else..

Maybe you could consider the Lumma as well. Trinity can help you with that as well.
