m-tech kit

hey is the m-tech kit for 325's like an m3 conversion...? i know its impossible to make a 325i like an m3, but the m-tech kit makes it look more like one right? also if i luck out and find a smashed m3 in my local junkyard, could i take those bumpers and fit em on my 88' 325i? (it has chrome bumpers)

thanks....

if you are talking about e36, than you can just bolt on m tech bumpers, and skirts. But on e30 the body is different, so I don't think it will be that easy as on e36.
Also it's really hard to find m3s on junkyards.

ok but the m-tech kit is supposed to make a car look like an m3 though right? and how can i tell if i have an e36 or e30 (no flames please).

hey e30 with pinstripes, rare

do you still have that car? maybe you could stick the 16" hartge's on it and do the 5 bolt conversion thing

-sorry if i'm a little off topic here.

ah cool... well if m-tech kit doesnt make your e30 look like an m3, why is it so popular?

'88 325e · 03-16-2002, 10:44 AM

Just curious?

Juve Deli · 03-16-2002, 06:54 PM

ah cool... so are there any body kits thay make your e30 look like an m3?

'88 325e · 03-16-2002, 08:55 PM

Well you can get a front air dam off of an M3 but you would have to cut it and fabricate it to a non M3 air dam. And the fender flares would be a big PITA! So I would say you would be better off buying an M3 (thats if you can afford it if it breaks).
