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.
Sam.. get this guy an M-Tech kit already.. and some wheels.. and...

We already did the 20" M6 reps and a drop last year. Weve just been waiting for the next mod.

Nope. This one is a Black on Black V6 non sport with ACS trunk and roof spoiler, and some quads.

If we are thinking about the same Silver Gray V8 sport, lowered on 20" M6 reps that one belongs to a friend of mine named Chris from SF.

Thanks everyone. I think I feel the same way about these vendors on eBay, I don't trust em at all. I talked with a member on here, project5, and I'm thinking about buying the kit from him. I seen the pics of his car and i loved that look. And I feel more comfortable with his product figment than those on eBay. I thought about the mtech kit like sam said but so many people are getting it I just wanted to take a different route. Even though i do love the mtech look, acs is just much cheaper and different. I'll probably get it within the next two weeks and come by sam.. Thanks again everyone for ur help.

Yeah, take a bit of time and do some research before deciding. Body kits and wheels make the biggest difference in the look of your car so choose wisely and don't be hasty.
