Welllllll... since you asked here's my take on the subject
Front air dams - a must have for the sixer
Side skirts - added dead weight that creates an opprotunity for rust to develop. I dislike the look on the sixer and think they are pointless.
Rear apron - I kinda like the rear apron. It thickens the back end of the sixer giving the rear more "substance". I always thought the ass of the stock sixer looked a little thin and needed to be bulked up and squared off a bit, esp behind the rear tire. (notice I said a bit)
Rear spoiler - I'm impartial to these. I have the M-tech on my car, don't much care for it but not motivated enough to remove it.

I was sitting outside just admiring my 6 yesterday and was thinking about side skirts and the back of the car. If i was a metal wizard, i would graft on the back of the swage line and trunk from my e32(RIP). You know how it kinda turns up a little like a ducks ass.
Any widebody 6ers out there? Ive seen pics of a custom widebody with testarossa style door slats. Cool enough for me to drive. Also the e30 style widebody that BMW stuffed a V12 into. Grainy old photos and a butt ugly car.

So you have a wrecked E32? Got any parts to sell?
Hey, does anyone have any profile pics of a shark with M Tech skirt? The black car is sweeeeet!! Personally the way the wheel sits in the well determines if skirts would work, like a lowerd 6, aaaaahhhh Fikse,235 + to fill the wheel well ( I should have gone 245) a nice simple kit like the m-tech really carries the line of the car well. However stock ride height with something like a 205 wheel.. skirts.. not so much. my .005 cents

I have been looking for m-tech side skirts but that seems to be impossible.

Does anyone know where I could obtain a pair of M-Tech side skirts?

Keep a close watch on ebay. I have seen a few sets in the last few years and one set was new.
A set was just listed for sale on bigcoupe but they are in the UK.

I really like the look of those M-tech skirts, but they are seemingly rare. I think I might make some metal side skirts for my M6. I saw a cool precedure where Chip Foose made a mold from some bent sheet metal strip. It was a few inches wide and a couple feet long. Once he bent it and cut it down to the right shape, he said he would take it to a sheet metal supplier and have them custom bend the piece for him on their brake.

Livin the dream!
How about side skirts with an already lowered 6? I am already banging the rear of the car if I don't go ridiculously slow over speed bumps.
I am very interested in a M technic spoiler or Racing Dynamic rear wing.
635 Pistons, 11.3:1 Compression, Short Shift Kit, Big Bore Throttle Body, Rising Rate Fuel Regulator
Cammed, Lowered, Bilstein Sport Shocks, Engine Start Button
bmp's are nice carefull though I bought a car with a M technic spoiler and its damaged guess how much I found another one for-----------$639
So will the BMP body kit for the e28 M5 work on the e24? I saw someone say the side skirts will work, what about the front and rear bumpers?
Just got off of the phone with Ary of DTM Fiberwerkes (sp?). He says that if 5 or more of us are interested he can replicate just about anything. I really like the clean lines of the BMP and M-Technic skirts. Any takers?
I have a complete Mtech kit side skirts, front & rear dams & rr trunk spoiler. no mounting hardware which still can be ordered i believe Front dam at apex is a bit ground down,missing the bottom line of ribbing but otherwise everthing else OK. front & rear red in color. sides in primer if i remember correctly. not seen them 4 awhile. rr spoiler black
Sold my M635 and although I'd love another probably not going to happen so they(I know I'll hate myself for doing this) can be bought.
