Those of you with the OEM mtech kit and sport package, how low is your front end? I am trying to figure out if the mtech front is too low for me to pull into my driveway. I barely scrape my stock front end as is, if I pull in too straight to my driveway.
I cannot tell if the bottom of the mtech kit is the same as the stock front end, but just wider and more flared out. Im assuming that the BMW OEM mtech front bumper cannot be too low as most people are not used to driving a lowered car.
Can anyone tell me what their OEM mtech front bumper measures off of the ground at the lowest point?

Thanks. I measured my oem front end, and in the majority of the front end is around 6.75-7 inches. At the wheel well, the lowest point of the front end is actually 6 5/8 " high with oem 18's.
If the mtech is 6.75 it sounds like I will be ok.
Thanks

That means no front lip/splitter for you then.
