Looks outstanding! Is there any weight savings or other functional improvements with this brace? Or is it mainly about CF eye candy?

(I assume the factory brace is aluminum? Or is it steel?)

Looks great.

How was the fitment, and also can you confirm it is in gloss and matches the rest of the CF on the car. Appreciate the feedback as thinking of buying this.

Any improvement over the stock brace would be an improvement IMO. The weld quality I have seen to date I feel does not match the quality of the rest of the car.

The factory braces are steel. According to Turner, their brace is more rigid and less than half the weight of stock.

Thanks. It fit perfectly and it's a gloss finish. I didn't compare the weave of the brace to the other carbon bits that I have mainly because it never crossed my mind to do so. That and the fact that only the carbon front lip and brace can be seen together, I suppose it doesn't really matter. I can say that I can't tell a difference by looking at them.

Check out this video by NCG80M3 of him installing it on his G80 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOoqw0FdPuI

Thanks for the feedback and link to the video. I am thinking that this may be the one.

First damage

Nothing I’ve done to the car but had my first damage today… Someone’s bike lamp which had been held on by tape. Break-in-service this friday hope they’ll have the parts soon enough. Never had any damage done this quickly😅
Must add that I didn’t notice anything until I parked the car in the garage.

In this world where NFT's generate millions of dollars, and people earn money on twitch just eating food or licking microphones - $150 for a pair of painted front reflectors isn't the worst. Besides, you're also paying for iND quality and paint matching. It's relatively expensive when you think of it in terms of it just being pieces of plastic, but there is, of course, much more to it than that.

The rears are not worth it but the fronts are 100% worth the money. They're paint matched perfectly.
Amazing quality and really cleans up the front quarter
