  • It's finally here, an affordable E30 MTech 2 body kit WITH instructions on how to install it on your E30!
    In this video, we cover how to install the Mtech 2 front bumper on our K24 swapped E30. We will be covering the full MTech 2 body kit install video-by-video so stay tuned for the rest of the episodes as we release them!
    FAQ -
    Q: Will this fit my early model E30 with diving board bumpers?
    A: This kit CAN fit early model E30's but in order to install it properly, you would need to convert to late model plastic bumpers. This means you would need late model bumper shocks, late model front valence, and late model bumper crash bars.
    Q: What material are the bumpers made of?
    A: ABS Plastic
    Q: How is the fitment on these body kits?
    A: Our body kits have great fitment out of the box and require only minimal work to fit perfectly on your E30. The fitment shown in the video is the bumper straight out of the box with no body work done to it and as you can see, the body lines match OEM very well with little to no extra work.

    Does the bumper attach to the valence at all? Is it really just held on with three screws? Does the bumper tie into the fenders too?

      The front bumper slides into then lock into the side brackets which connect the fenders to the front valence 👍

      Installation should be the same process but you would need to source late model bumper shocks + late model bumper crash bars. There may be a way to mount the bumper without those but it may require some custom mounting to make it work 👍

    • @garagistic

      The side skirts are not a direct bolt-on for convertibles due to the different rocker panels that convertibles have vs 2 door and 4 door E30s. For the front and rear bumpers, you must have late model front/rear bumper supports installed which our Mtech 2 bumpers fit over 👍

    what would i need if i have an early model e30 with the diving boards and want to get an mtech 2 kit on ?

    • @garagistic
      @garagistic  Pƙed rokem

      In order to install the MTech 2 kit on an early model, you would essentially need to do a front/rear late model plastic bumper conversion. To make the process as straight forward as possible, you would need a set of front/rear late model bumper shocks, crash bars, and front valence. The rear side door pods on the MTech 2 kit would also need to be slightly trimmed/modified in order to match the different wheel arch that early models have compared to late model E30's. We have had customers install the MTech 2 kit on their early models and it is definitely doable!

    the 1st step is wrong. It should be:

    *snap 2 t55 torx bits
    *attempt to use a torch to heat bolts
    *catch bumper carrier on fire
    *snap 2 more torx bits
    *have a beer
    *go to home depot cuz all real auto parts stores close at 530
    *get pissed because they dont have the right size
    * have another beer
    *cry
    * wait for auto part store to open in am
    *get pissed again because they dont sell the size

    *push plunger
    *buy real Mtech 2 car
