Does not dramatically change the look of the car for that kind of money.

The front end looks very round as opposed to sharp to me.

CFRP is not carbon wrapped plastic. CFRP is what you're thinking carbon fiber is. These products are actual carbon fiber products, CFRP is just the proper name for that material.

I stand corrected, but fact is the price is ridiculous for such a part.

No kidding 🤣. I'll save about $4700 and wrap it all myself. You accomplish 90% of the same look. Plus 5k in dead money you'll never recover. :. Most of us only keep a car 2-3 years and move on. Thank the vinyl wrap gods every day I have that option 😬.

They developed an aero program that consists of exactly three parts, in carbon fiber for the BMKia?

I am sure some company will copy it or make something similar within the next year for less than half the price.

An E92 Limerock is a slow M? 8k screaming V8 RPMs? Yes he also has an E30m. That's about 23 years of hard core love for a brand. Do I see a C6 in your sig? The old school BMW pilots loved the fact that they had relatively small, 4 door cars that were tossable and track worthy. The M2 is all that with 4 doors. The GC is...different.



Yes, haters gonna hate, but 'automotively' speaking, have some respect for the machines that built the company's reputation.

Then have some respect for where the brand is heading. Funny how people can run their mouth about another person's car but when called out they immediately get defensive. Yes I have a Z06 as my toy. The m235 is a perfect daily in my opinion in a area surrounded by wrx/sti.
