I just put my Mkit on my 2007 yesterday and you must also remove the form core on the front bumper reinforcement. This is not stated in the PDF instruction manual.

I've only received one quote so far, from a body shop recommended by a local BMW dealer. They're gonna charge $470 for the install (again, my parts will already be painted from Tony).

I'm pretty happy with that price and if I don't hear from the other dealer I tried to contact, I'll probably just go with that.

Just thought I'd update with what I've found so far.

Being in Denver, I probably won't make it for the NY/NJ "group self-install"

That's still sorta pricey. 200-250 is the most id spend.

Lets plan for a nice sunny day...whoever has the largest garage works. I am waiting for my M-tech front..from Tony....no rush though. Maybe some BBQ and photoshoot after that. Though I am not an auto tech...only a chef...but many heads are better than one, I guess. The BBQ will be good though!
Is this happening still?
I'd love to drop by and check it out
