No, not selling my 5 for a truck :-)
I just got a call from my SA, my M-Tech kit is here - how big are the boxes? Do I need a truck, or they'll fit in my 5?

Yes. Full size bed. Take either the front or rear bumper out from one of the boxes and put it into one box. That will eliminate one of the large boxes.

Shoot... I was hoping to fit at least front one in my car.... do you think it will fit if I take it out of the box? I have to take it to the paint shop tomorrow morning to be painted by Friday evening so I can install it over the weekend... This way I could arrange for the truck next week...

Neither the front nor rear bumper will fit in any of your three cars. Go to Home Depot or Lowes and rent their trunk for the day.

I took most of hte kit home in my 530 - without hte boxes of course. I had to leave rear bumper at the dealers, but front, all hardware and pieces, and skirts fit inside just fine!
