not wanting to offend :crutch: the owners of the mtechI , but I think the mtechII looks alot more modern 8) than the mtechI, I would have to say I prefer the mtechII's looks!!

Yeah I agree, the Tec II looks more modern which is why most people prefer it I reckon.

M Tec I's better IMO though as it's old skool :cool:

:oops: ..., you are getting me wrong, I dont want a modern car, If I did I would keep my 98 glanza ... when I said modern I meant less 'boxier', just like the look of the mtechII more than the mtech!

It's personal opinion at the end of the day, tech i & ii are both absolute stunning, not only is the e30 a great car but your also spoilt for choice which e30 you can have 8)

Oops, guess I overstepped the mark in support of the mighty chrome! :eek:
Tech-2s are great (& about 600000 times beter than e36s!), just not as great as tech-1s! :tongue:

I think the M-tech 1 looks good for the fact that they actually managed to get a chrome bumpered car looking slightly good :chuckle:

I just put a Tech I kit on my Cabrio.

Had the chrome bumpers sprayed black too.

Sideskirts are being sprayed right now, should be on the car soon (they have been modified to fit the Cab body)

I believe mine is Mtech I. Sorry picture isn't great. I think the big difference is the side skirt is like a box section on Tech I.

That looks M Tech II to me! :)

There's a huge difference between Tech I and Tech II, if you look at the pics schmick325 posted up of his Tech I cab you'll be able to see the difference.

the m tech 1 does not have chrome bumpers guys, as they are metal bumpers painted!!! otherwise they would be chromed, which there not!

and i reckon they look much better from the rear, its those small lights that make them look real old school.
