Making sure it fits in the garage..

Mperor · 09-16-2021, 01:56 PM

Just got my "china" OEM-look front lip spoiler, R44 rear spoiler, painted front reflectors installed. Also got the custom x-pipe and spacers. I am waiting for the lowering options for the all-wheel drive.

The R44 rear spoiler is larger than I expected in person than from the pictures, need to get some use to... but I think I will like it.

The china knock-off came out MUCH better than expected, I save close to $2K and really can't tell the difference from the OEM Performance one

@Mperor I think the last pic is of a different car. Have you seen a China knock off of that lip? I like that too

Car looks great! Is the weave on the carbon decent? Matches the OEM carbon fairly well?

Yea I posted it by mistake, they looked similar from the pin and I could not delete it by some reason.

The weaves are very close (both 1x1 I think), but OEM parts look slightly darker than the knock-off (very slight)

M3AWD · 09-16-2021, 07:53 PM

Dropped it off at RTP Customs. Getting a few things done

I hope your front wheels stay grounded with that spoiler

Here is the only photo I have currently from far.

That spoiler looks great

I agree…. I didn't think I'd like the idea of replacing the stock CF spoiler, but I love that this one is a bit more pronounced and noticeable on the car….from the pics anyway it just looks like a bigger version of the exterior CF kit one, which is what I have and am changing my mind now on due to this pic….damn Bimmerpost….always the cause of a lighter wallet.

Please let me know your experience with them.
I tried some other place in metro ATL and didn't like their work.

No sir, alignment was good based on what my tech told me. There may be a tad more camber but thats it.

I tossed my wheels on, haven't had a chance to get good pictures yet though.

Meanie · 09-18-2021, 10:42 AM

Got my R44 spoiler installed.

Note to all the weave does not match the cf roof. The R44 spoiler has a larger weave. That said the spoiler just finishes off the car so nicely.

They're directing air away from the trans tunnel

Ugh, that sucks! But that’s about the smallest curb rash you could ever get from curbing a wheel. Obviously sucks, but it’s so small.

It's already so shiny in the pic. Was anything done to the exterior yet?

This should be a dedicated thread: "How fast did you reach break in service" LOL

I was wondering about that when I saw your dragstrip pic. Good job!
