Loving this thing just now! IMPO, a few small tweaks, and the front end looks badass.

Must say, it does need a spoiler! not to mad, but something.

AutoID has a kit out in May, rear spoiler looks amazing.

Thanks mate much appreciated, a couple of hours on that this morning.

If the wife sees one more AutoFinesse box arriving I'm gonna receive a proper flying kick!

Cheers Mr Foxy.

I kept away from the spoiler as trying to keep it looking low and wide. All the spoilers add height, especially the M Perforamce one bit to do like it.

Maxton on wow nice a subtle but I'm quite happy with the OEM. Will go and check out the Auto ID one now.

Just for balance of argument and an apology to all M135s out there....

Genuinely don’t find the front that offensive but can see why some don’t like it.

Pic of mine in hibernation....

This is mine taken the day it was delivered, just before lockdown in the UK. Dealer delivered it rather than us going to them, to aid the social distancing at the time (20th March).

It was a toss up for me between Melbourne and Misano - looks smart!

The profile of those tyres looks spot on! What size are they?

Notice quite a difference from my old F20s 18s to the new Bridgestone 19s. Would just look better with a slimmer profile in my opinion.

Same as standard 19s 235x35 all round. Just MPS4S. I'm really happy with their look and performance, bearing in mind in comprise to 21 SUV tyres, these are a bargain!!
