    What is M Tech 1? E46 Bumper Guide

    I am in conversation with Hermes, and this question came out. It might not be ZHP, but the bottom line was concerning ZHP foggies. Came to the question of what other E46s that have the same foggies installed? Since both of us are looking for good sets of foggies with special attention on lenses without any or very minimum pitting. Please move the thread to the right place. Thanks.

    It's close but not exactly the same as yours. Think of it like levels of some liquor. There are the many regular versions, M-Tech 1, 2, regular M3 bumper, M3 CSL...

    They look like the regular E46s? Considering I am new to the E46s. They all look the same.

    IIRC, the fog lights are the same. The Mtech I just has that trim ring so it appears smaller.

    Blasphemy. The Mtech1 or ZSP is a precursor to the "special" car you guys drive. It was only available in 01 and 02 model years. There are prefacelift ZSP and facelifted ZSP. The suspension upgrade was the same, the body kit was updated although different than the ZHP and it received style 67s I believe in addition to leather with bolsters and the sport steering wheel.. The shadowline, the cube trim, alcantara and the engine upgrades are non present.
