I'm at a shop getting my Hartge M-Tech lip installed. We just put it up to look at first, man it looks GREAT!!! I'll post some picture of the finished product when I get a wash and get home later this evening. I can't stop smiling when I look at the car... Stay tuned for pics of the lip, and probably quad exhaust this saturday. The shop put my order through but didn't deliver today, so this saturday should be the day for the quads. Stay tuned...

Did you change the whole bumper to an M5 one, or just the rear difusers?

Hartge Splitter on M-Tech bumper. Also the quads will be installed this saturday or the next, depending on my school work. Anyways, Please comment.

Looks great. How much does this reduce ground clearnance - difficult to get a feeling for this from the pictures?

With the lip, the ground clearance was probably reduced by like 1 to 1.5 inches. Not so bad. I can still clear all the speed bumps I usually go on.
