I have a 08 528i and I just found out that a friends brother has a OEM Mtech kit that he wants to sell. Its the same color as my car, alpine white, which would save me money on painting, his car was an 05 and mine is a 08. I dont know if that makes a difference. Will it fit my car? He took off his kit when he traded in his car and has had it stored for over a year. I would appreciate any info. Also what would be a good price for it? I know UMNITZA has the replicas on special for $800 plus paint. Thanks for any info

No that kit will not fit your car due to the fact that your car is an LCI model and your friends is pre lci. Try hittin gup Joe @ Trinity, they r great guys there.

I have, real nice people. I was hoping to save money since it was already painted the same as my car. Thanks for info. Maybe i'll have him post it in the classified section in the forum.

well i was able to fit an LCI Mtech kit that came off a 2008 535i on my 06 530i
I'm sure you wont have problems with the side skirts, rear and front bumpers has little difference but it was fine with me, front wheel well was a bit bigger and almost didn't fit but was able to push it in anyways,
in the rear i wasn't able to screw some parts of it but its nice and tucked anyways
the major screws that really hold the bumper is the same so I'm not really worried that it will come off or anything
I hope I was able to help
Good Luck!!!
