Mtec2 kit...Cab specific?

[eko]

Are the sideskirts on a Mtec2 kit different on Cabs the same way Mtec1`s are?

[oakey]

Yup
Deeper than the saloon versions.

[eko]

Worth any more than saloon?

[rigbo]

Got the full kit if interested eko.

I would have thought so. People are always 'altering' saloon ones to fit so I'd guess cab ones are harder to come by

I may have one for sale myself mate hence the question

Cab skirts are rare and worth more,ive fitted saloon ones and they were a nightmare,if i could have got cab ones,i would have.

[eko]

£500+

Saloons ones normally go for £400-450

u can make saloon tec2 skirts fit a cabby but they need a nip and a tuck

However tec1 skirts are saloon or cab no amount of a nip and a tuck will make a tec1 skirt fit a cabby

As for costing its got to be worth more than a saloon kit cos its cab only

[eko]

500+ sounds good to me
Going to view it in the next few days hopefully so ill see what happens.

Bit of work fitting saloon onto a cab - I did it and fair bit of cutting, making brackets etc to secure. I would say worth a bit more to the right person at the right time, becoming hard to get a good genuine kit.

Someone will buy it regardless.

also if it's really proper is the rear valance/bumper is slightly different if it's a factory fitted kit with pre facelift rear lights

[eko]

Hopefully going to view the car one day this week with a view to buying it to break so ill be checking the kit carefully then.
Would only a genuine Mtec kit have the little recesses(sp) where the Mtec sticker goes or does the copy kit also have these?
Also am I right in thinking a copy Mtec front bumper is one piece whereas the genuine is 2 piece?
Any other tell tale signs of it being genuine/fake?

That is correct. Also most replica kits are made from fibreglass

[Jon_Bmw]

FIBREGLASS wrongness!

[eko]

I was aware that the copy kit is fibregash

[Simon13]

no the rear is 1 piece and front is a separate bumper and valance on genuine stuff

[eko]

no the rear is 1 piece and front is a separate bumper and valance on genuine stuff

Wasnt aware of that though
