Is it an early car or a late car. If its early (metal bumpers) you could pick up a full kit for about £100-£150, as the tech 1 kit fits 2 or 4 door cars. If is a later car (plastic bumpers) you will need the tech 2 kit for the 4 door, these vary from 2 and 4dr cars as they have panels which are attached to the bottom of the doors. You could expect to pay between £350-£400 for this kit (tech 2)

Hope this helps, its well worth fitting the kit, transforms the look of the car.

Front & back bumpers / valences are the same for the 2 / 4 door, just the door pods that are different...

They are fibreglass bumpers he has, stay clear, raid your piggy bank and get the real deal. Zayyan will have the sills and sidepods for sale soon, flogged him a full kit the other day, and he only needed the front and rear.

umm, maybe i jumped the gun there! i thought it said mtech II which will fit any plastic bumpered car, the seller was selling a mtech kitted tourer earlier, i thought this was it and he had decided to break it instead. I reckon you need to send him an email to confirm what he is actually selling...
