So I got rear ended, got an estimate and the third party paid me cash for my damages, now I'm thinking of getting a full body kit instead of repairing my rear bumper , i got 1500 for my settlement , anybody knows if I can get a decent kit for around 2000
Installed on my car, if so where can I get it and what style ? I live in Toronto and my car is a 2007
328xi sedan pre lci , thanks

Avoid anything dirt cheap and made out of fiberglass/duraflex/etc. Terrible quality and fitment.

You can either get an M-tech or M3 style front bumper, M-tech or m3 style side-skirts, or an m-tech or m3 style rear bumper (i personally don't like the m3 rep rear bumpers...)

You can get the OEM M-Tech pieces for around 2k for just the parts...you have to deal with paint though. OEM M3 conversion is a lot more work.
PROS: OEM fittment
CONS: Quite Expensive with a nice paint job factored in

You could also get an ABS plastic rep M-Tech or m3 set from a reputable vendor on here if that's what you want.
PROS: cheaper than OEM with very good fittment
CONS: not quite OEM quality. pretty good, but you'll want your paint shop to wet sand the pieces prior to painting to rid them of any plastic burrs.

Recommendations: avoid Bimmian/JLeviSW simply because they have really high markups on their stuff (Bimmian worse-so than JLevi)
