They dont have a UK supplier mate. You will have to import it from Germany, which will take a couple of weeks at least.
I've changed my mind again. I'm leaving the Mtech and rolling the arches for some fat rims. I figured as both looks good, i might as well save my Ԛ£800 or whatever it will cost to get the kit over here and use that money for something else. After all this is not another show car, but a practical everyday car for the summer and as the German one is fibre glass is likely not to be able to stand everyday abuse. Would also like to see one in the flesh on a car 1st, plus if i ever have to sell, a nice clean Mtech is more likely to get you a quicker sale than a individual kit that no one knows off. I just hope i dont change my bloddy mind again by the weekend

No chance dude. I've yet to see a good fake one and there's no way i'd go that far anyway. Like i said this is just a nice everyday car i'm after. Dont really want to take on another project that will drain Ԛ£thousands from my account. Not that i have Ԛ£thousands in it mind

There are a fair few around. A mob down in Victoria, Australia does E30 M3 and 2002 Turbo kits in a carbon fiber / kevlar mix that look extremely good, and bend under racing conditions.
Theres a japanese mob that does some nice ones as well. Just googling, there is a British place that seams to do them for 800GPB.

Hopefully it might confuse you a bit more ;)

Good move ben going for the Mtec, I would look into modding the mtec to make it a bit smoother like some of the photoshops above, will look
so subtle but still modified, also very Euro. I personally love the clean smooth subtle Uro look some nice 9" BBS and slammed on Airbags like u said so u can still use it everyday.

Woody photoshop pics? It was a hard thing to decide, but no point in spending extra dollar if i dont have to i guess and like some have said, the Geran kit might not look as good in the flesh as it does in the photo's. Besides i can get the Riger out when and if i need a mad kit fix
dsio, defo no M3 kit mate. That will just make the car a fake and i'm not that keen on fake things. Besides the money i'm going to spend on this car, i could go out and buy a real M3 cab if i wanted, so why bother building a fake one?

That's not shoped mate. It's an actual mod. I could do something like that and relocate the indicator on my mirrors or something

That's the next big question. I was really feeling the blue on that German car with a hint of purple to give it just a slight colour difference, but i remember that when we sprayed the Riger the undercoat we used was Sterling Silver and it looked mental. I'd forgotten about it, but a new member just joined with a silver Mtec 2 cab (Post in the Wanted section looking for some pina's) and his car looks really nice and it made me remember, so now Sterling Silver and the German Blue are the 2 front runners.
Shame the Rieger is red, cause the colour i really want is the Calypso red with cream/white leather, slammed car, wide wheels and subtley modded Mtech2 kit

Tell me about it mate. Had an interesting Valentines day with about 100 text's from some girl i know. Been with her man for 6 years and have a 4 year old together and she's looking to play away. She could not have chosen the more wrong person for that after what happened to me. To be honest i feel like telling her man cause i have all her explicite text messages and it's just not right, but i dont know who he is. FCUKING WOMEN. You cant trust any of them
Blue or Silver. That is the question i ask? I really cant be bothered to start another thread

The terrible thing is, I went to visit him in hospital last night (he's recovering from suspected menengitus!), then left there with his daughter... Wasn't planned, honest. She's a really nice girl... and has an identical twin. Woo hoo!

Anyway... back to the Topic at hand...
Silver or Blue...
I'm thinking a silvery goldy kinda colour... platinumy pewtery colour. More silver than gold though... know what I mean?
Then you can have a fruity interior colour... natural colours...
Maybe not then.

I'll drive the Rieger and you can drive the new car when it's done
We can tell them we are identical twins too and only our mother can tell us apart. I just have a better tan than you that's all

I'm with Daz on this one - MAURITIUS BLUE! and definitely Lotus White leather not cream wrongness!
Although, for the full-on pimp look you could try Alpine White with deep red leather (cardinal i think?).
Try Sepang Brown if you tempted, works so well on the new Fives and X3/X5.

I love white leather cause it's so pimp, but it's so bloddy difficult to keep clean and really not practical for everyday use. Especially with my big black booty
I have a quote from the guy that done Nav's interior for the cream and i'm more than happy with it. I'll ask about white and will consider it if it's not much more expensive
