World Debut: G80 M3 GT4 Inspired Build
Happy ///Monday BP fam! I'm very excited to share with you the update to my G80 build. You may remember me from my previous build posts https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1886231
https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...highlight=Soom 2.5 years and 25K+ smiles later, I decided to make a more drastic change. I present to you the world's first and only G80 M3 GT4. Inspired of course by BMW M's M4 GT4 street race car. When I first saw the look of the latest generation GT3/GT4, I already knew if I was ever going to wrap my car, it would have to be that. If you know me personally, I'm not a fan of wraps and have never done it to my cars. However as much as I love Isle of Man Green and enjoyed it for a couple years, I knew it was time to do something different. So I turned to my good friend Omar from Heavenly Customs in NJ to work his magic. Boy, did he deliver. I was floored and nearly in tears. We did the reveal at the @phillybimmerclub event yesterday and it was a crowd pleaser to say the least. I've been a die-hard BMW enthusiast since I was 9 years old and to be able to represent my passion for BMW with this car 25 years later is truly special and a dream come true. Here are some photos and the build sheet. Hope you like it!

I love the wrap and the overall look of the build! I really dig the M3 GT4 badges on the back and grill. Excellent vision and I think it was executed perfectly.
I would really be curious to hear about your experience on it’s track performance based on the extensive mods mentioned. It definitely looks the part and I hope it’s just as much fun to operate!! Thanks for sharing and enjoy that beast! |

Thank you! It’s currently more of a big power roll racing build instead of a regular track with turns. I’m on 18 inch drag radials in the back so it’s not great for fast turns haha. I just got a new setup with the turbos and will be tuning soon for a race event so I’ll be posting data. I will definitely make a track specific lower power tune and throw on my PS4S for a track day next season tho! She’s a lot of fun to drive for sure.

Looks SICK!!! CONGRATS!!! Can wait to see it in person.
P.S. Fix the rear bumper Valvetronic decal. It's not straight. That would bother the hell out of me LOL!!! |

I dig the M3 GT4 decal. I might steal that and make an M4 Competition decal!
