To fit the tech 1 kit to this car will be difficult as it is the later facelift cab, to do so you will need to change the front lower metal valance, change the front bumper and bumper mounts, rear bumper and bumper mounts and modify the sill cover to get over the wider sills as found on a cab. Its a lot of work and to be honest you would be better selling the car and buying an older prefacelift version.

you can very easily fit the tech 2 kit, but again unless you get the cab specific kit (quite rare) you will need to modify hte sill covers to clear the sills, i went for front /rear bumper/skirts only as you can see below as i do not like the sdie pods and sill covers on the tech 2 kit. I have also written a guide on how to fit the stuff...

with regards to wide arches etc thats all down to personal taste, and personally i say NO!! subtle mods easily reversable is what i went for so some nicer wheels, smoked front lights (i also wrote a guide on how to do this http://www.e30zone.net/e30zonewiki/inde ... ked_Hellas lowered clear indicators red rear clusters etc

I would not be doing this to this car !!

The rear valance will need chopping out as it sit's lower than the tech1 rear appron.
