Hi,

I have just fitted a full m tech origional kit, and the vents on the front next to the fog lights dont line up with the 'tunnels' to carry the air. I had to remove the standard front vents to make the kit fit. Am i now missing a mtech vent or something?! 8O Also the little clips along the top of the font lower valance dont seem to have anywhere to clip onto?! :mad:

Thanks, 8)

Ok, i will try and get some pics, but i have never posted pics on e30 zone, so its a experiment! The car was 100% standard when i got it, so the valance is on the right car for sure.

Yay :D , went to the dealer, and realised the m tech front vents are different, bought them and fitted them. Also sorted it out so its all fixed in place properly. Im happy. :D :D lol. Theres loads more to do for the m tech kit than i thought if you going to do it properly. :bmw:
