back bumper will need a some modding around the wheel arches, you will need to purchase a facelift valance and mounting struts, these have to be fitted for the tech 2 valance and bumper to fit over. Tech 2 cab sideskirts are rare but you can use 2 door skirts which will need to be slit to strench over the sides as cab skirts are deeper.

thanks, would tech 1 kits fit easier? i perfer the look of the tech 2 but if it doesnt fit easily then i may be tempted by the tech 1

tech 1 would fit so much easier!

i have a 1990 cab, and i purchased a tech 2 kit quite a while ago, but never got round to getting it fitted because there was alot of modifing involved to make it fit. I didnt want to go somewhere local as most havnt done this job before so wouldnt know what to do. Would cost alot of time and therefore alot of money.

I considered the tech 1 kit, it ok but not as nice as the tech 2. My plan is to sell the cab and leave e30s for a while (cant afford the running costs!) and get a facelift cab in the future to fit my tech 2 to.
