If anyone has recently sourced an OEM MTech kit for an LCI E60, please post were you ordered from and price paid. You can PM me, if you'd prefer not to publicly post. I was considering Reps, but by the time I factor in foglights, brake ducts, etc., I'm thinking there isn't going to be that much savings between replica and OEM for the LCIs. Also, if anyone has recommendations for paint/install shops in the Atlanta area, I'd be interested in referrals as well.

Thanks,
Craig

Hope you don't mind if I piggy back on this - I'm looking for a source of the kit as well.

Piggyback away! Cheapest Online I've been able to find is BMW Parts Unlimited, which has the kit for $1601 shipped for the LCI kit w/o PDC, or $1442 shipped w/PDC BMW Parts Unlimited. Anyone ever order from them or have a cheaper/better source?

If someone gets with Garry and gets a price for the kit w/o PDC and doesn't mind sharing please PM me. I'm generally interested but not so serious right now. I understand if he can't have his prices posted online in the thread so PM would be cool.

I got mine from BMW of Morristown for $1,500 shipped (w/PDC) but there was a sale going on.

I can recommend an excellent body shop in Douglasville that specializes in classic restorations and late model imports - they did an outstanding job on my kit paint/install. They don't take credit cards though. PM me if you are interested.
