there have been plenty of threads of the kind
mtech looks just like mtech
m5tech looks like the m5 kit
the sides are the same, the rears are dependent if you want the mtech rear (single exahust/diffuser) or m5 (dual exhaust/no diffuser)

tex_phil is one of the few if not only member with the m tech rep front bumper, the rep side are the same, and the rears are obviously different...most here have the m5 rep kit..start by searching tex_phil's post for the mtech rep bumper

I know it's different but just wanted to see the visual difference. I also want the dual non pdc rear

My Ride: 2006 Titanium Silver BMW 530iA, Sport & Premium Package, Active Steering, Anti-Roll-Suspension, Adaptive Headlight, Navigation, OEM M-Tech Kit, Authentic RD Trunk Spoiler, VIP Modular Wheels: 245/35/20; 275/30/20, OEM M Trunk Finisher.
Below are some of the few comments that I have read and by comparison, I am compelled to stick with OEM.
"Look at this thread with the dark grey BMW -- It has the OEM Mtech front bumper (Notice the extra line(carving) near the fog lights)
https://5series.net/forums/topic/106...1#entry1284306
Check out the Trinity M5 replica bumper that I have here (My Car) -- Scroll all the way down
https://5series.net/forums/topic/107.../page__st__120
Do you see how neat it is -- Gives you that Mean look unlike the Mtech - Also notice the shape of the bottom grill"
Again, thank you Racerboss and everyone for your help!

MTech rep looks like the MTech kit. M5Tech is a rep of the actual M5 kit but it has foglights. The dimensions are not exact to the M5 kit though cause you can't fit a splitter for an M5 on the M5Tech.

I think I'm going to get the m5tech full kit with dual rear. It has a Beefier stance and looks more aggressive. Thanks for all the advise and help.
