Would this work with the dynamic cruise control sensor? My guess is not

I agree that it's preference. I just personally don't care for an abundance of CF. A front lip and rear diffuser to complement the roof?!? Sure! Mirror caps, side skirts, rear spoilers, grilles, side vents, front bumper scoops, etc…..is just too much for my visual palate. What makes it even worse is the fact that the ///M Performance parts never match the roof. The only time BMW got it right was with the E46 CSL CF parts, which were absolute masterpieces. It's for that reason I looked to companies like Status Gruppe for OEM-like CF.

Nope. And it's a huge mistake. Those with higher spec'd models would be their most likely customer base. This needs to be addressed.

Tbh I think those that are opting for AWD and active cruise are less of the marketshare that go for these sporty mods, but I could be wrong

You’re absolutely wrong when it comes to me. I like and have all that stuff.

Actually think it'll look good, function over form though but that's ok with me.

yeah that's what I was thinking. although there is another grill being released that will be made to fit with the sensor. made by Project Gamma I believe.

I definitely like to mod my car. I have a handful of parts already waiting for it and while I debated on not getting the adaptive cruise control, it's a silly thing to not get (if you do highway driving) due to cosmetic reasons.

I think it's silly to worry about self driving in an M3 on the highways lol

Maybe people worried about that should opt for a tesla instead ? :

BMW obviously thought it was worth adding it to the car. It wasn't a deal breaker either way but for a 90K car.. it's kinda silly not to have it, if available and one has longer work commutes like me.

I think Teslas are extremely boring, I'll likely never buy one.

I definitely prefer this ABS version. time to wait a few month when they actually start shipping out to place my order :P

Perhaps take a few seconds and contemplate what you just said. Then realize there are tens of thousands of other people that enjoy this car also each with their own wants and needs. Tens of thousands brother. Now that you’ve had a second to rethink what you wrote perhaps now you realize everyone’s different. I hope at this point this has registered.

The self driving is useful for many reasons depending on the driver and what he /she is using the car for at any particular time. If all you do with this car is pulling out of the garage and go out and have fun with it then of course an option like this is pointless. But for those of us who use it on the daily or business trips I personally use a self driving mechanism 5 to 10% of the time on a four or six hour trip. I would be glad to list the reasons why I use it but then all kinds of other arguments would pop up and I’m really not interested in that. Use your imagination as to why a self driving function, one that actually only goes for 10 to 15 seconds before it requires your intervention, would be useful to some drivers.

It was on the Facebook group. I saved some pictures but I think it would be inappropriate to post those on this thread, considering this is the official thread of a competitor

Any thoughts on how it might look with a UK license plate mounted? How much of the new grill it would you be able to see? I can see it has holes in the bottom of the carbon fibre strut. Do you have to drill license plate holes in the middle or could you have it hanging down below the carbon fibre strut?

I was watching a random YouTube video and saw this (it's a documentary) which shows that it is not supported at all by the grill so I don't see why it wouldn't be compatible.

Can you start a new thread on the other grill with your pics? I think the official word from Vorsteiner is that their grill is not compatible with our cars. But I'd love it if that were wrong….

I spoke with the shop owner, he’s going to make a post tomorrow about it.

You probably will have to trim the grill for the sensor, thus isn't supported by vorsteiner.

anyone have any info on how the front M3 emblem attaches to this grill? will it still clip on like the oem grill?

If you look at the pics, there is just an empty spot for the stock M3 emblem. You'll have to remove, add more tape, and stick back on.
