Duke Dynamics already working on kit prototypes for M4

Just saw this. The hood and the front bumper/lip look pretty cool. Not sure about the rest though...

I like the upper vents like the e92. The rest is a bit much, especially the rear

The real money maker will go to the company that makes an aftermarket hood that integrates the kidney grill and hood into one piece,(like the E46 M3) completely removing the stock "hood line".


Side note: the "hood line" doesn't brother me as it can barely be seen on darker color cars.

Yeah I'll take that hood, that's how BMW should've done it. Seems too subtle as is.

They actually have a rubber catch insert. My M3 never has a dirty engine bay. 1 vent is for the air intake, the other is a dummy

Those big ass gills I have no use for
