Fibreglass bodykits tend to be a bit brittle. However, most body shops are familiar with the material and can easily be repaired. Urethane is more rubbery in nature, better able to absorb shocks better. Not sure about weight differences between the two.Most original body kits are made of ABS plastic, which tend to hold shape better and not as brittle as fibreglass.Unfortunately for me, bodykit for e21 are hard to come by. So I had to get mine done by BumiFibre. FYI, the finishing quality of Bumi Fibre is very poor. Luckily for me, my painter is a cool guy and rectified it for me at minimal additional cost.If you can still get original stuff for your bimmer, bite the bullet and get it!

mctnesh bodykit work was very fine....i did my old toyota at bumi fiber many years back....in 1995 to be exact....they charged me an arm and a leg......very bad workmanship...bangladeshi workers!damn!like ichi....my painter refined it!....so no more bumi fiber for me!

you can spend minimum moolah to make the E36 look good...Get the fiber lower lip add on like the AC or RD... it'll make the stock bumper look good without breaking your wallet.... as for the rear... Ask Koryong wat he did.... Side skirt... Can live without.... Most importantly, keep the paint shining... and your car will look good even without bodykit...

heyas deck, welcome to the forum. as general rule fer e46, wats made fer coupe wld b better left out to coupes only then tho not necessarily true fer ALL items.as fer mutec, im afraid they dont make the kit fer E46 sedan. u cld request yer merch to try to fit by some modifyin job tho it wld b a pain. but if u mnage to do so, i wld offer u my bow as e46 wiv mutec wld b uncommon compared to errr mtech2 ... sighs.mrhartge , pls find attached herewith E46 coupe fit wif mutec b/kit rgds, B)kahar abdullah
