can't make up my mind 335i e92 sideskirts from duke dynamics or m tech (oem)?
seen them both... and both look great! the oem m tech ones are very flush w. the car...
the duke dynamics stick out a little.. i have no idea which to get... but i know that on the aw coupe, in the e92 kit pic thread from DD... the skirts seem like they stick out a lot... if anyone has the kit in the ny area installed please let me know.. i would love to see it in person.

If you like it more aggressive, go with DD.
If you like it subtle, go with Mtech. I went the latter route.

i like the DD, but on the white it looks akward... maybe cause its not lowered? and has stock rims?
i just want the fit perfect... bump for anyone near ny that has either kit

I was torn on this same subject for about 2 months, I wanted the DD skirts to match my DD front bumper, but after having my bumper installed, I noticed little fitment issues that I did not like, and for that reason I was afraid of how the skirts would come out, PLUS I wanted urathane, and I cant handle having another part on the car that is not OEM fit, so i went with M-techs, even though I like how the DD skirts look better.

I cant handle non OEM fitting parts, and the look of OEM M-tech is much smoother and better flowing then the DD. Id go with M-tech for sure.

From what I heard, does Longtran fabricate a kit that can make the DD bumper or skirts fit better? I am really upset how my rear bumper is not aligning right now

Go OEM M-Tech. Urethane can take more abuse than fiberglass.
