I found this front bumper. It isn't a M-tech but looks good and cheaper.

I still prefer the M-tech but this one is better than the stock.

The only thing with cheap body kits is the fit and finish. It looks very nice in the picture but if i were to spend that money I would get some opinions from people who have actually installed it.

I agree with zelement. I have seens lots of cheap body kits and they don't last. The this body kit is actually more expensive compared with the M-kit, the full set M-kit is aprox. $1500 primed.

I have not seen anybody with that bodykit before.. and there's a sale for that bumper. I don't think it's a good stuff though..

I bought the complete M-Kit (front bumper, rear bumper, side skirts, new foglights, and the dozens and dozens of little bits and pieces required for the installation) for $1680 from a BMW dealer and appearently there are other places that sell the complete kit for $1500. So this "Luminati" at $899 for only the front bumper isn't really cheaper than the M front bumper......it is more than likely more expensive.

I think it looks good, but from previous posts, I thought this bumper was made of fiberglass. Not a good thing
