I just a general question I would like to put out there.

I have got to opportunity to buy a genuine m tec 2 body kit. I also already have a fibre glass m tec 2 body kit already.

I just wanted to know in terms of resale. Would the car be worth more with the real m tec kit on it even though its not a real m sport

Thanks

A carbon fibre mtec 2 kit would surely be worth the same as a real tech 2 kit if not more, are you sure you dont mean fibre glass??

i would have thought if it is not a true sport then it does not really matter to the resale value, although a fibreglass kit might put people off. iw oudl say ebay the fibleglass rubbish and but the genuine, it will fit, look and last better. having said that, expect a higher risk of rust along with the fitting of either :D
