any ideas what kit this is on this E30??? i know the front bumper is a Mtech 1 front valance but side skirts and rear apron are slightly different

also there is a GRM badge on the bootlid, metal badge with Mtech colour bands behind the letters. any ideas???

i bought this 325i mega cheap as it has some slight damage to driver side but its a odd one in that it has factory sport bilsteins, slip diff and this weird GRM badge

cant ay ive looked for markings yet. valances and skirts are plastic, the MTECH 2 copy rear spoiler is fibreglass so was clearly added at a later date

the GRM badge puzzles me too. also in the centre console there is a weird perfectly cut slot cut out just in the same place that alpinas have thier ID plaque to show what number they are etc. no idea what this slot is for. anyone seen this before on an e30?

Its not Zender, i have Zender side skirts, rear valance and a rear spoiler, (not yet fitted) and they look nothing like that.
