BMW 5 Series G30/G31 2017–2023 Facelift Kit (in M-Tech 2021)

Description

The M-Tech 2021 restyling kit transforms pre-facelift BMW 5 Series G30 (sedan) and G31 (wagon) models from 2017–2020 to the look of the 2021 facelift “5” with the factory M package (M-Sport, also called M-Tech). The kit includes front and rear bumpers, Full LED Laser headlights, 1 Bar kidney grilles, LCI-design rear lights, side skirts, and exhaust tips. Compared to the M5 F90 style kit, it differs by the front bumper, grilles, diffuser, and tips — the look is more restrained and factory-like.

This is not the M5 style: the bumpers, grilles, and diffuser replicate the production LCI version with the M package, while the hood, front fenders, and body width remain OEM.

What’s included in the kit

• M-Tech front bumper (for 2021+);
• Full LED Laser front optics — left and right headlights (for 2021+);
• 1 Bar kidney grilles — radiator grilles in gloss black;
• air shutter — louvers located behind the kidneys (for 2021+);
• M-Sport/M5 rear bumper;
• MT LCI Style rear bumper diffuser;
• LCI-design rear lights for 2017–2020 body, 2 pcs;
• M-Sport/M5 side skirts;
• M-Performance Silver exhaust tips, 2 pcs.

Manufacturer — GBT; material — aluminum and plastic. Body parts are supplied for painting and install in OEM mounting points. The kit ships in two boxes: 222 × 82 × 66 cm (about 30 kg) and 75 × 75 × 40 cm (about 5 kg), so think in advance where you will receive and store the parts before installation.

The M-Sport/M5 rear bumper together with the MT LCI Style diffuser creates the M-Tech rear end. This pair is also available in the catalog separately — M-Tech rear bumper assembled.

How M-Tech differs from the M5 F90 kit

M-Tech and the M5 F90 2021 style kit share the same base: the same Full LED Laser headlights, louvers, M-Sport/M5 rear bumper, LCI-design rear lights, and skirts. They differ in four items that define the character of the car:

• front bumper — M-Tech instead of M5 F90;
• grilles — 1 Bar kidneys instead of M-Look V3;
• diffuser — MT LCI Style instead of M5 LCI Style;
• tips — M-Performance Silver instead of M5 Silver.

These are different designs, not quality tiers: M-Tech is a restrained factory look, M5 F90 is more aggressive. If you also need fenders and a hood in the M5 style, check out the M5 Competition 2021 kit. All options are collected in the G30/G31 restyling kits section.

Compatibility and what to check before ordering

The kit is designed for the G30 sedan and G31 Touring wagon from 2017–2020. In this conversion, the bumper and headlights are changed together: the facelift optics have a different shape and fit the new bumper. Full LED Laser headlights also fit cars with OEM Full LED adaptive lights, but the adaptive functions (cornering light, automatic high beam) are not retained after replacement.

For the manager to confirm compatibility, send the VIN, model year, and photos of the car and specify:

• body — G30 or G31;
• type of OEM headlights and whether adaptive lighting is present;
• cameras and parking sensors;
• whether there were body repairs to the front or rear.

How to install the kit

1. Remove the pre-facelift bumpers, headlights, tail lights, and skirts.
2. Test-fit the new parts before painting: gaps, mounts, louvers, sensors, and cameras. The parts install in OEM mounting points; welding is not required.
3. Paint the bumpers and skirts in the body color.
4. Install the optics, tail lights, diffuser, and tips, adjust the lights, and perform coding if needed.

If the car has been in an accident, do an inspection first: mounts, reinforcements, wiring, and sensors may require additional parts. The kit can be installed at the DD Tuning network of certified service centers — the manager will tell you the nearest center.

What to pair it with

Choose a lip or other bumper add-ons specifically for the facelift M-Tech bumper: parts for M5, M Performance, and the pre-facelift bumper have a different shape and are not interchangeable. For the M-Sport/M5 skirts from the kit, there are DPT V-1 side skirt add-ons in gloss black. Find the rest of the parts in the body kits for BMW 5 G30/G31 section.
