I'm finally, slowly, moving toward an Mtech conversion. I originally wanted to go all ACS, but the rear just didn't agree with me. I LOVE my ACS front, but that ACS butt - just really wasn't my fav. Member Shihwei sold me his unpainted Mtech for a great price. The guys out at K&W Auto Body in Walnut were awesome. They held the bumper for me until I was able to get down there and give them moolah. I then decided to have them paint and install it - for yet another great price. The paint work is xint and the install took under 3 hours. I'm happy with the agressive stance of the mtech rear, and as an added bonus, it really highlights the chrome Remus tips. I just finished painting the inside of the tips with high-temp black to add a better contrast with the exhaust. I'll take those photos later. Great work guys and thanks a bunch!!! I am selling my stock bumper for $250. It's in great condition - check the classifieds for details!
Here are the pics from this morning (the black E60 is Shihwei's):
