I have found a complete body kit with all the nuts bolts, grills and things necessary to install on ebay for 1450 is this a good price for this body kit? IM not sure if this body kit would look better than the m-tech kit.

IMO, getting the M5 kit is just too much of a wannabe. Even though I have it, the M Tech kit is already pushing the limit of plagiarism but there are still subtle differences that will separate you from being a fake. I wouldn't get it but that's just me.

yeah sellers on ebay always mess up M5 kit for the M technik kit, because M5 is more common put in search, I agree it is confusing, they should say " m5 look like kit for e60"

Okay, in defense of quad_m, the link he posted on ebay is correct. It does in fact say M-tech but in a roundabout way. Read carefully, and it is M-tech. The description of the could have been worded better to avoid the confusion. The picture itself is showing foglights which the original M front bumper does not have.

yes. and they are selling it for 1600 in total if you look at the shipping.its a better idea for people
who can print that out and buy from their local dealer, saying look i can get this for this price
