IMHO the mouth of M-kit is too wide and the mesh gril is a bit weird. M5 bumper is way better? and then my verdict (which one is better) wud depend a lot on a particular colour and in flesh comparisson.

the garage would install ACS parts they get direct from ACS in Aachen.

The New M5 fascia is smokin' 
but doesn't it require modding the fenders front and rear? :'(
I prefer the M-tech since there's less potential for headaches.
