Hey guys, i dont post much as you guys can see.. i usually just browse around but after visiting sam today i decided i wanted to add a kit on my car and need some help choosing. I seen these on ebay and want to know which one you guys would go for? or if you have any other ideas go ahead and throw them at me. Anyone try any of these? If the second option is just as good id rather save some money and go with that one. Thanks

Neither, you will regret it in the long run. Save now for the M-Tech. TRUST ME.

He is looking for something a little different. Nothing against the M-Tech kits, or the people who own them, but in our area, almost everyone and their mama has a M-tech E60. Personally, I also like the M-Tech and recommended it to him. So, I could see it from both sides.

If you're on a budget, then you should consider Umnitza. Don't waste your money on those kits from eBay.

Can't believe how many different companies are coming out with replica kits nowadays. If you to go with replicas to save some money, get one from one of the vendors on here who can vouch for the fitment and quality of the pieces instead of buying blindly from an eBay auction.

Good luck with your decision and hope to see your car at the next NorCal meet.
