I'm not sure, but i think it is no difference between the M5 and M-tech side skirt. I had the M5 side skirt on my old E60 and it looks like the same as my friend E60 with M-sports package. Go for one of them. It's the same.

When I put them on my car, there was a label on the back that said something like "M5/M-tech sideskirt" which leads me to believe they are exactly the same.

Where did you read/hear about this? Seems like such trivial weight savings. Comparable to lets say a big ziplock bag of weed.
