I'm thinking to have Motorcepts custom-mod it to make it a little lower to the ground though.

Also, there was a thread recently with a great-looking new front, but it was kind of costly - about a grand, I think. I'll try to find it so I can show you what I mean...

if you buy that ACS kit, im going to hire a team of secret attack ninjas to come steal your car and put the M-Tech kit on instead....

and since youre seeking opinions....i absolutely hate the alpina kit....seems really lazy from a design standpoint.....


just my two cents.

Again, If my car was bone stock and I wanted a drastic, edgier look I would probably head to everyone else's suggestion and do the Mtech or M5-tech. For some reason I've been really attracted to the alpina lip lately.

V, hope you don't mine, but I stole some pics from one of your previous posts. As you can see, it's clean, classy and sporty. If you want to look like 90 percent of the rest of us here on the forum go with the Mtech. Just depends on personal preference tho. At least everyone is agreeing not to get the ACS. THAT, I think , is definitely a lazy mod.
